Human renin is inactivated by a diazoacyl compound (diazoacetylglycine ethyl ester; N2CHCO-Gly-OEt) in the presence of Cu(II). The mechanism of the inactivation is presumably identical to that which has been determined for pepsin and several other proteinases: esterification of the β-carboxyl of an aspartic acid residue at the active site of the enzyme. Renin's inhibition by the diazoacyl reagent, its specificity toward a hydrophobic sequence, and its inhibition by pepstatin, all suggest a close relationship to the acid proteinases, especially pepsin and cathepsin D. However, renin, a neutral proteinase, would be better classified together with other diazoacyl-inhibited enzymes by active site rather than pH optimum. The term “aspartic proteinase” is suggested for this group of enzymes.
