The angiotensin converting enzyme catalyzed hydrolysis of furanacryloyl-Phe-Gly-Gly is activated by monovalent anions in the order C1- greater than Br- greater than F- greater than NO3- greater than CH3COO-. In the alkaline pH region, increasing anion concentrations decrease the KM

Furanacryloyl-Phe-Gly-Gly has been shown to be a convenient substrate for angiotensin converting enzyme (dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase, EC 3.4.15.1). A detailed kinetic analysis of the hydrolysis of this substrate indicates normal Michaelis-Menten behavior with kcat = 19000 min-1 and KM = 3.0
