Title: Angiotensin-converting-enzyme gene insertion/deletion polymorphism and response to physical training.

Subjects: Chromosome polymorphism, Angiotensin converting enzyme, Angiotensins, Amanitins, Oligopeptides, Reactivity (Chemistry)
Abstract: Describes the identification of a polymorphism of the human angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene which the insertion (I) rather than the deletion (D) allele is associated with lower ACE activity in body tissues and increased response to some aspects of physical training. Methods; Results; Conclusions.
