Application Data
(Figure 1 : Recombinant Human ACE2 His and DYKDDDDK Tag (21-1006) binds with high affinity to the Spike (RBD) protein of the virus SARS-CoV-2. Method: Recombinant Human ACE2 His and DYKDDDDK Tag (21-1006) is coated on an ELISA plate at 1ug/ml overnight at 4 degree C. Recombinant SARS-Cov-2 Spike RBD Protein Fc Tag (319-541 aa) is added (starting at a concentration of 500 ng/ml with a two fold serial dilution) incubated one hour at RT. The interaction is then detected using an anti-human IgG (HRP).)
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is an ectoenzyme (carboxypeptidase) with an extracellular catalytic domain that predominantly localizes at the plasma membrane and is thereby able to hydrolyze circulating peptides. ACE2 has approximately 42% sequence identity with ACE, and its cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains show 48% homology to the protein collectrin that plays a critical role in the amino acid absorption of the kidney. ACE2 converts angiotensin I to angiotensin 1-9, a peptide of unknown function, and angiotensin II to angiotensin 1-7, a vasodilator. ACE2 is involved in the regulation of systemic blood pressure and has direct effects on cardiac functions. It is expressed predominantly in endothelial cells of the lung, gut, heart and kidney. ACE2 together with the protease TMPRSS2 acts as a functional receptor for SARS coronavirus as well as for the new highly pathogenic coronavirus, 2019-nCoV/SARS-CoV-2, which is the cause of COVID-19.

Product Notes
The ACE2 (Catalog #AAA78554) is a Recombinant Protein produced from CHO cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 20-740aa. AAA Biotech's ACE2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA, FA (Functional Assay). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ACE2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ACE2, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
