Product Summary for Mouse ACE-2 DuoSet ELISA
This DuoSet ELISA Development kit contains the basic components required for the development of sandwich ELISAs to measure natural and recombinant mouse Angiotensin I Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE-2). The suggested diluent is suitable for the analysis of most cell culture supernate samples. Diluents for complex matrices, such as tissue lysates,serum, and plasma should be evaluated prior to use in this DuoSet.

Background: ACE-2
Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2), also known as ACEH (ACE homolog), is an integral membrane protein and a zinc metalloprotease of the ACE family. The predicted human ACE-2 protein sequence consists of 805 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 also serves as the receptor for the SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 viruses. Binding of the S1 domain of the SARS Coronavirus Spike protein to ACE-2 initiates viral entry into the host cell. Recently, this interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and ACE-2 has become an area of intense therapeutic interest to develop treatments against COVID-19.
