Target description

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (UniProt: P12821, EC:3.4.15.1; also known as Dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase I, Kininase II, CD143) is encoded by the ACE (also known as DCP, DCP1) gene (Gene ID: 1636) in human. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is a single-pass type I membrane protein, a zinc metalloproteinase critical for regulating blood pressure and fluid-electrolyte balance. The enzyme exists in two main forms: ACE1 and ACE2. ACE1, the classical form, consists of two homologous domains, each containing a zinc-binding metalloprotease active site. The structure of ACE1 is characterized by a chloride-binding site that influences its catalytic activity. ACE2, while sharing similarity with ACE1 in the metalloprotease domain, lacks the second active site and functions differently in physiological processes. ACE primarily functions to convert the inactive decapeptide angiotensin I to the potent vasoconstrictor octapeptide angiotensin II, thereby regulating blood pressure. Angiotensin II also stimulates the release of aldosterone from the adrenal cortex, promoting sodium retention and further elevating blood pressure. Moreover, ACE degrades bradykinin, a vasodilator, which modulates the renin-angiotensin system′s effect on blood pressure. ACE2, conversely, counterbalances ACE1 activity by degrading angiotensin II to angiotensin 1-7, which has vasodilatory and anti-proliferative effects. ACE is widely expressed in the endothelial cells of the lungs and kidneys, vascular endothelium, epithelial cells, and other tissues. ACE2 is also expressed in the heart, kidneys, and intestines, with particularly high expression in the epithelial cells of the lungs and small intestine. The expression of ACE enzymes is regulated by physiological demand, and alterations can be indicative of or result in pathological states. ACE is predominantly a membrane-bound enzyme but also exists in a soluble form. It is primarily localized on the plasma membrane of endothelial and epithelial cells. ACE2 also shares this localization, though it is found extensively in the intestines and renal tubular cells. Dysregulation of ACE activity are implicated in several cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension, congestive heart failure, and myocardial infarction. ACE inhibitors are commonly used in treating these conditions. Moreover, ACE2 has gained significant attention due to its role as the entry receptor for the SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 coronaviruses, linking it to conditions such as COVID-19. Dysregulation of ACE2 expression is also associated with heart and kidney diseases.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.

Reconstitution

300 µg/mL after reconstitution at 25 µL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
