Target Information

The protein encoded by AGT, pre-angiotensinogen or angiotensinogen precursor, is expressed in the liver and is cleaved by the enzyme renin in response to lowered blood pressure. The resulting product, angiotensin I, is then cleaved by angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) to generate the physiologically active enzyme angiotensin II.
This protein plays a key role in maintaining blood pressure and is implicated in the pathogenesis of essential hypertension and preeclampsia.
Mutations in this gene are associated with susceptibility to essential hypertension and can cause renal tubular dysgenesis, a severe disorder of renal tubular development.
Defects in this gene have also been linked to non-familial structural atrial fibrillation and inflammatory bowel disease.
