The primary aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme gene (ACE) on general cognitive ability, specific cognitive ability and psychomotor function in Chinese children. In total, 450 children completed both C-WISC tests and ACE I/D genotyping. Of these, 320 children were examined using psychomotor tests. The quantitative traits of psychometric IQ and psychomotor abilities were calculated to determine whether there were any significant differences related to their ACE genotypes on the basis of an analysis of variance. F test results showed no significant differences with regard to any aspect of intelligence or psychomotor performance relative to the various ACE I/D genotypes (all p > 0.05). Our study suggests that ACE I/D do not have a measurable impact on any aspects of IQ or psychomotor ability and that psychomotor ability correlates well with IQ in Chinese children.
