Intended Uses: This kit can be used to measure angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) activity in serum (plasma) and animal tissue samples.
Principle of the Assay: N-[3-(2-furyl)acryloyl]-L-phenylalanylglycylglycine (FAPGG) have the maximum absorption peak at 340 nm, angiotensin converting enzyme catalyze N-(3[2- Furyl ]Acryloyl)-Phe-Gly-Gly to produce FAP and GG, and the absorbance at 340 nm will be decreased. The activity of ACE can be calculated indirectly by measuring the decrease in absorbance at 340 nm.
Background/Introduction: Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is a Cl- and Zn2+-dependent carboxypeptidase, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of angiotensin I to produce angiotensin II with vasoconstriction effect or hydrolysis of bradykinin with vasoconstriction function to produce Phe-Arg dipeptide. ACE is an important part of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). RAS is an endocrine system that plays an important role in electrolyte homeostasis, body fluid regulation and cardiovascular control.

Product Notes
The ACE (Catalog #AAA177776) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE), Assay Kit" 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
