“…In mammals, angiotensin I is converted into angiotensin II and bradykinin is activated, thus regulating blood pressure and electrolyte homeostasis. This enzyme was identified in the venom of the endoparasitic wasp P. hypochondriaca 5 , in Thalassophryne nattereri and Scorpaena plumieri, venomous fishes typical of the north-eastern coast of Brazil 72 . Although its specific function remains unknown, it is probably involved in processing peptide precursors.…”
