Beschreibung

General description

Recombinant, human ACE-2 ectodomain (amino acids 1-740) fused at the C-terminus to a His•Tag sequence and expressed in NSO cells. ACE-2 cleaves angiotensins I and II as a carboxypeptidase and plays an important role in regulating cardiovascular and renal functions. Native ACE-2 is an integral membrane zinc metalloprotease whose activity is inhibited by EDTA. By SDS-PAGE, the apparent molecular mass of the glycosylated protein is ~120 kDa under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.

Packaging

Please refer to vial label for lot-specific concentration.

Preparation Note

Following initial thaw, aliquot and freeze (-70°C).

Other Notes

One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that will cleave 1 nmol MCA-YVADAPK(DNP)-OH per min at 25°C, pH 7.5.
