ACE-2, also called ACEH (ACE homologue), is an integral membrane protein and a zinc metalloprotease of the ACE family that also includes somatic and germinal ACE (1). Mouse ACE-2 has about 40% amino acid identity to the N- and C-terminal domains of mouse somatic ACE. The predicted mouse ACE-2 protein sequence consists of 798 amino acids, including a N-terminal signal peptide, a single catalytic domain, a C-terminal membrane anchor, and a short cytoplasmic tail. ACE-2 cleaves angiotensins I and II as a carboxypeptidase. ACE-2 mRNA is found at high levels in testis, kidney and heart and at moderate levels in colon, small intestine and ovary. Classical ACE inhibitors such as captopril and lisinopril do not inhibit ACE-2 activity. Novel peptide inhibitors of ACE-2 do not inhibit ACE activity (2). Genetic data from Drosophila, mice and rats show that ACE-2 is an essential regulator of heart function in vivo (3). In addition, ACE-2 is a key SARS-CoV Spike protein receptor in vivo and has a critical function in acute lung injury (4, 5).

Scientific Data Images for Mouse ACE‑2 Antibody
Detection of Mouse ACE‑2 by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of mouse kidney tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.25 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Mouse ACE-2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3437) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF019). A specific band was detected for ACE-2 at approximately 95 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Detection of ACE-2 in HEK293 Human Cell Line Transfected with Mouse ACE-2 and eGFP by Flow Cytometry.
HEK293 human embryonic kidney cell line transfected with (A) mouse ACE-2 or (B) irrelevant protein, and eGFP was stained with Goat Anti-Mouse ACE-2 Affinity Purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3437) followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (F0108). Quadrant markers were set based on Goat IgG control antibody (AB-108-C, data not shown). Staining was performed using our Staining Membrane-associated Proteins protocol.
ACE‑2 in Mouse Kidney.
ACE‑2 was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse kidney using 15 µg/mL Goat Anti-Mouse ACE‑2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3437) overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained (red) and counterstained (green). View our protocol for Fluorescent IHC Staining of Frozen Tissue Sections.
ACE‑2 in Mouse Kidney.
ACE-2 was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse kidney using Goat Anti-Mouse ACE-2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3437) at 15 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Lower panel shows a lack of labeling if primary antibodies are omitted and tissue is stained only with secondary antibody followed by incubation with detection reagents.

Detection of Mouse ACE‑2 by Simple WesternTM.
Simple Western lane view shows lysates of mouse kidney tissue, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for ACE-2 at approximately 141 kDa (as indicated) using 2.5 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Mouse ACE-2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3437) followed by 1:50 dilution of HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF109). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.
Mouse ACE‑2 ELISA Standard Curve.
Recombinant Mouse ACE‑2 protein was serially diluted 2-fold and captured by Rat Anti-Mouse ACE‑2 Monoclonal Antibody (MAB34371) coated on a Clear Polystyrene Microplate (DY990). Goat Anti-Mouse ACE‑2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3437) was biotinylated and incubated with the protein captured on the plate. Detection of the standard curve was achieved by incubating Streptavidin-HRP (DY998) followed by Substrate Solution (DY999) and stopping the enzymatic reaction with Stop Solution (DY994).
Detection of ACE-2 by Western Blot
Expression of vasoactive proteins (mRNA and protein levels) in response to different oxygen conditions (mRNA: fold change relative to control condition: 21% O2; protein: % of control condition: 21% O2) as determined by qRT‐PCR using actb as house‐keeping gene and the delta delta Ct method and western blotting from cell lysates. (a) NOS3 mRNA expression, protein expression at 72 hr and Griess reaction (analyzed levels of NO2− and NO3− in the supernatants resulting from NOS activity). (b) ACE1, ACE2 mRNA expression and ACE1, ACE2 intracellular protein expression at 72 hr. (c) ACE1 and ACE2 protein levels in the cell culture supernatant as determined by Western blotting and mRNA expression of sheddases ADAM10 and ADAM17. p‐values result from statistical testing with Student's t‐test (mRNA), one‐way ANOVA (protein) and two‐way ANOVA (Griess) with Tukey's multiple comparison test. *p < .05; **p < .01; ***p < .001, ****p < .0001 Image collected and cropped by CiteAb from the following open publication (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33565273), licensed under a CC-BY license.
