"research, published in the prestigious Nature journal Scientific Reports, was led by Professor K. Ravi Acharya in collaboration with the Universities of Leeds and Cape Town, South Africa. The scientists created images of the 3D molecular structures of two peptides, including one from snake venom, that inhibit angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE), a key protein that regulates blood pressure."
