Anti-ACE2 (Intermediate Domain)

ACE2 antibody was raised against a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids near the center of human ACE2. The immunogen is located within amino acids 150 - 200 of ACE2.

This polyclonal antibody is formulated in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) pH 7.4 containing 0.02% sodium azide as a preservative.

This polyclonal antibody is stable for at least one week when stored at 2-8°C. For long term storage, aliquot in working volumes without diluting and store at –20°C in a manual defrost freezer. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles.

Rabbit Anti-Human Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) recognizes an epitope in the intermediate domain of Human ACE2. This polyclonal antibody was purified using affinity chromatography.

Angiotensin I converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is an exopeptidase that catalyses the conversion of angiotensin I to the nonapeptide angiotensin, or the conversion of angiotensin II to angiotensin. ACE 2 has direct effects on cardiac function, and is expressed predominantly in vascular endothelial cells of the heart and the kidneys. ACE2 plays a regulatory role in lung pathophysiology, including pulmonary fibrosis and acute lung disease. Activation of ACE2 by a small molecule can be a therapeutically relevant approach for treating and controlling Pulmonary Hypertension (PH). ACE2 may also have clinical potential as a novel molecular target for the treatment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
