The activity of three angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors with unique related structures was assessed in vitro and in vivo. The three compounds were (S)(-)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2- (3-mercapto-1-oxopropyl)-3- isoquinolinecarboxylic acid (EU-4865), 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-(3-mercapto-1-oxopropyl)-1-isoquinolinecarboxylic acid (EU-4881), and (S)(-)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-(3-mercapto-1-oxopropyl) -2-quinolinecarboxylic acid (EU-5031). In vitro EU-4881 was a competitive inhibitor that lacked potency (IC50=1980 nM) against purified ACE. The other two compounds were equipotent (IC50=41 nM) against purified ACE but differed in their inhibition kinetics. EU-4865 (Ki=38 nM) was a noncompetitive inhibitor, and EU-5031 (Ki=6.9 nM) was a competitive inhibitor. Against caveolae membrane-bound ACE EU-4881 also lacked potency (IC50=2852 nM). In vivo in the conscious acute aortic coarctate (AAC) rat it also lacked potency, having an ED30 (oral dose decreasing blood pressure 30 mmHg) greater than 100 mg/kg. The activity of EU-4865 and EU-5031 in the caveolae membrane-bound ACE and AAC rat reflected their different Ki values rather than their similar IC50 values. In vitro, and EU-4865 and EU-5031 had IC50 values of 19 and 6.7 nM, respectively, and in vivo, they had ED30 values of 52 and 1.1 mg/kg, respectively. These results suggest that ACE has a binding requirement for a carboxy-terminus, hydrophobic amino acid that is important for in vivo activity.
