Medical - Medical: Cardiology / renin-like
English term or phrase: renin-like
I am looking for a a single expression that could replace the whole phrase "atividade de enzimas com ação semelhante à da renina" for "renin-like enzymatic activity". I just thought it was too long and wonder if anyone has a better way out of this.

Context: "Angiotensin-converting enzyme activity, renin substrate and renin-like enzymatic activity have been found in a number of sites including vascular, cardiac, renal, brain, and adrenal tissues."

Thanks a bunch,

Experimentos utilizando-se substratos peptídicos fluorogênicos indicaram que estas enzimas parecem pertencer à família das renina-like.
