why the lungs? [HAPP-L]

["Pat Bowne" <Pat.Bowne@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

We were reviewing the R-A-A pathway yesterday and my students asked why ACE was in the lungs particularly. My text says it's in the lungs 'and other organs' -- anybody know whether it is generally distributed, or more active in the lungs?
