Disease
[RENI_HUMAN] Defects in REN are a cause of renal tubular dysgenesis (RTD) [MIM:267430]. RTD is an autosomal recessive severe disorder of renal tubular development characterized by persistent fetal anuria and perinatal death, probably due to pulmonary hypoplasia from early-onset oligohydramnios (the Potter phenotype).[1] Defects in REN are the cause of familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy type 2 (HNFJ2) [MIM:613092]. It is a renal disease characterized by juvenile onset of hyperuricemia, slowly progressive renal failure and anemia.[2]
Function
[RENI_HUMAN] Renin is a highly specific endopeptidase, whose only known function is to generate angiotensin I from angiotensinogen in the plasma, initiating a cascade of reactions that produce an elevation of blood pressure and increased sodium retention by the kidney.
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Introduction of the 2,2-dimethyl-4-phenylpiperazin-5-one scaffold into the P(3)-P(1) portion of the (2S,4S,5S)-5-amino-6-dialkylamino-4-hydroxy-2-isopropylhexanamide backbone dramatically increased the renin inhibitory activity without using the interaction to the S(3)(sp) pocket. Compound 31 exhibited >10,000-fold selectivity over other human proteases, and 18.5% oral bioavailability in monkey.
Design and optimization of novel (2S,4S,5S)-5-amino-6-(2,2-dimethyl-5-oxo-4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)-4-hydroxy-2-isop ropylhexanamides as renin inhibitors.,Nakamura Y, Sugita C, Meguro M, Miyazaki S, Tamaki K, Takahashi M, Nagai Y, Nagayama T, Kato M, Suemune H, Nishi T Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2012 Jul 15;22(14):4561-6.
