Introduction:Basic information about CAS 484-43-5|5-Valine-angiotensin I, including its chemical name, molecular formula, synonyms, physicochemical properties, and safety information, etc.
5-Valine-angiotensin I is an Ang I peptide belonging to angiotensin I. 5-Valine-angiotensin I induces muscle contraction, can be used for renin-angiotensin system studies. Angiotensin I is a putative neurotransmitter, is the precursor of angiotensin II and of angiotensin fragment 1-7, which are involved in regulation of fluid volume and the release of aldosterone[1][2].
