ACE Human

Source: Sf9, Baculovirus cells.Sterile Filtered colorless solution.Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) is a zinc metallopeptidase vital for blood pressure control and salt and water metabolism.ACE converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II by release of the terminal His-Leu which causes the vasoconstrictor activity of angiotensin to increase.ACE inactivates bradykinin, a potent vasodilator and has also a glycosidase activity which releases GPI-anchored proteins from the membrane by cleaving the mannose linkage in the GPI moiety.ACE Human produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 1235 amino acids (30-1256 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 142kDa. ACE is expressed with an 8 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Functional Assay

Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

ACE protein solution (0.25mg/mL) contains Phosphate Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) and 10% glycerol.

Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) .Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Specific activity is > 1,000 pmol/min/mg. Defined by the amount of enzyme that cleaves 1pmol of McaRPPGFSAFK (Dnp) -OH per minute at 25C°.
