Results of the present investigation indicate that mouse gamma-nerve growth factor (gamma-NGF), which belongs to the kallikrein family of proteins, specifically cleaves the Phe-His bond of a synthetic renin substrate and exhibits rat-tonin-like activity. Since other mouse kallikreins do not cleave this bond, gamma-NGF may play a regulatory role in the generation of antiogensin-II.
本研究结果表明，属于激肽释放酶蛋白家族的小鼠γ-神经生长因子（γ-NGF）特异性切割合成肾素底物的苯丙氨酸-组氨酸键，并表现出类大鼠肾素的活性。由于其他小鼠激肽释放酶不切割此键，γ-NGF可能在血管紧张素-II的生成中发挥调节作用。
