Purity |
> 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE > 95% as determined by HPLC |
Endotoxin Level |
Less than 1 EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Biological Activity |
Measured by its ability to cleave a fluorogenic peptide substrate, McaYVADAPK(Dnp)OH. The specific activity is >200 pmol/min/µg. Test result meets the standard. |
Expression System |
HEK293 |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
84.57 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 85-105 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). |
Reconstitution |
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. |
Storage & Stability |
Upon receiving, the product remains stable up to 6 months at -20 °C or below. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for 3 months at -80 °C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
Target Background |
ACE2 (Angiotensin I Converting Enzyme 2) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with ACE2 include Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome and Neurogenic Hypertension. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the angiotensin-converting enzyme family of dipeptidyl carboxydipeptidases and has considerable homology to human angiotensin 1 converting enzyme. This secreted protein catalyzes the cleavage of angiotensin I into angiotensin 1-9, and angiotensin II into the vasodilator angiotensin 1-7. |
