ACE Antibody detects Angiotensin converting enzyme, also called DCP or CD143, a zinc-containing dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase widely distributed in mammalian tissues and is thought to play a critical role in blood pressure regulation. The ACE gene is mapped to 17q23.3. This gene encodes an enzyme involved in catalyzing the conversion of angiotensin I into a physiologically active peptide angiotensin II. Angiotensin II is a potent vasopressor and aldosterone-stimulating peptide that controls blood pressure and fluid-electrolyte balance. This enzyme plays a key role in the renin-angiotensin system. Many studies have associated the presence or absence of a 287 bp Alu repeat element in this gene with the levels of circulating enzyme or cardiovascular pathophysiologies.
This antibody can be compared with our Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Antibody (clone ACE/3764) for consistent detection of ACE / CD143 in endothelial and vascular biology studies.
The stated application concentrations are suggested starting amounts. Titration of the ACE1 antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
An amino acid sequence from the middle region of human Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 1 (TQARKFDVNQLQNT) was used as the immunogen for this ACE antibody.
After reconstitution, the ACE antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
