A hexapeptide angiotensin antagonist, Des-(Asp1, Arg2), Ile8)-angiotensin II.

Endocrinologia japonica, 1976
In the smallest biologically active fragment of angiotensin or a 3-8 hexapeptide the C-terminal was substituted by isoleucine residue. It proved to be the smallest potent antagonist of angiotensin II so far reported.

[Asp1, Val5] Angiotensin-(1–8)octapeptide Does Not Stimulate Aldosterone Secretion in Sodium-Depleted Sheep

Clinical Science, 1981
1. To test the hypothesis that [Asp1,Val5]-angiotensin-(1–8)octapeptide ([Asp1,Val5]ANG II) is a more potent agonist to aldosterone secretion in the sodium-depleted animal than is [Asn1,Val5]angiotensin-(1–8)octapeptide ([Asn1,Val5]ANG II), local adrenal arterial infusion of the two peptides has been carried out in sheep with cervical adrenal ...

Spektralphotometrische Bestimmung von Val5-Angiotensin II Asp1-?-amid durch Azokupplung mit p-Chlorbenzoldiazoniumchlorid

Fresenius' Zeitschrift f�r Analytische Chemie, 1974
Am Beispiel des Octapeptids Val5-Angiotensin II Asp1-β-amid (Hypertensin-CIBA) wird die Moglichkeit aufgezeigt, Polypeptidhormone mit Tyrosin und/oder Histidin im Molekul uber eine Kupplung mit p-halogensubstituierten Benzol-diazoniumsalzen quantitativ zu erfassen.

Transfer and Expression of an Artificial Storage Protein (ASP1) Gene in Cassava (Manihot Esculenta Crantz)

Transgenic Research, 2003
In order to increase the nutritional quality of cassava storage roots, which contain up to 85% starch of their dry weight, but are deficient in protein, a synthetic ASP1 gene encoding a storage protein rich in essential amino acids (80%) was introduced into embryogenic suspensions of cassava via Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer.

[DES-ASP1] angiotensin II in the sheep: Blood levels and its effect on plasma renin concentration

Life Sciences, 1980
Abstract The present study describes an improved method for measuring angiotensin III in arterial blood. This was accomplished by SE-sephadex column to separate angiotensin II from angiotensin III prior to radioimmunoassay. The arterial concentration of angiotensin III measured before and after 24 to 48 hours sodium depletion by acute cannulation of ...

Biological activity of des-asp1-des-arg2-angiotensin II in man.

Acta endocrinologica, 1982
The biological activity of des-asp1-des-arg2-angiotensin II (3-8AII) was studied in man. When 3-8AII was infused iv at rates of 22 and 308 pmol (17.5 and 250 ng)/kg . min separately into 5 normal men each for 120 min, blood pressure showed no change, plasma renin activity (PRA) decreased gradually and plasma aldosterone showed a gradual slight increase.

Disulfide pairing and secondary structure of ASP1, an olfactory‐binding protein from honeybee (Apis mellifera L)

The Journal of Peptide Research, 2001
Abstract: In insects, the transport of airborne, hydrophobic odorants and pheromones through the sensillum lymph is accomplished by olfactory‐binding proteins (OBPs). We report the structural characterization of a honeybee OBP called ASP1 found in workers and drones, previously observed to bind queen pheromone components.

Evidence for the Existence of des-Asp1-Angiotensin II in Human Uterine and Adrenal Tissues*

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1985
Renin is present in various tissues outside the kidney. In contrast, the levels of angiotensins (ANG), the active products of the renin-angiotensin system, have not been thoroughly evaluated in tissues. In this study, we demonstrated the presence of immunoreactive (ir) ANG I and ANG II in various human tissues by RIA.

Saturation of the Secretory Pathway by Overexpression of a Hookworm (Necator americanus) Protein (Na-ASP1)

2007
Human hookworm infection is one of the most significant parasitic infections, and a leading global cause of anemia and malnutrition of adults and children in rural areas of the tropics and subtropics. Necator americanus secretory protein (Na-ASP1), which is a potential vaccine candidate against hookworm infections, has been expressed in Pichia pastoris.
