    Structure-function relationship showed that the C-terminus carboxamide group played a crucial role in the selectivity for the N-domain of ACE. Additionally, the N-acetyl group and the aspartic side chain in the P 2 position aides in the N-domain selectivity of the inhibitor. These features make the inhibitor inaccessible to the C-domain but ...
