Abstract
The process of activation of an angiotensin-converting enzyme by ionizing r adiation was studied in terms of a kinetic model suggesting the existence o f at least one activated form of the enzyme. The kinetic decaying oscillati ons induced by an exciting force were obtained and analyzed. It was shown t hat the probability of a periodic process is lower than that of the appeara nce and reactions of one activated form of the enzyme.
