Overview:

The angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) belongs to the angiotensin-converting enzyme family of dipeptidyl carboxydipeptidases. ACE2 cleaves the angiotensin I and angiotensin II to counterbalancing ACE activity in the regulation of renin angiotensin system (RAS). ACE2 also has the role in regulation of cardiovascular, renal and reproductive systems physiologically (1). In addition, ACE2 is a functional receptor for the spike glycoprotein (S) of SARS-CoV, HCoV-NL63, and SARS-CoV-2 (2), which causes the pandemic of the respiratory diseases (COVID-19) (3).

Activity:

FACS assay showed 2019-nCoV Spike protein S1 can bind to ACE2 overexpressing cells. ACE2 overexpressing cells were stained with 2019-nCoV Spike protein S1, followed by anti-spike protein antibody (C19S1-61H) and fluorescence-conjugated secondary antibody.


Subculture Routine:

Subculture the cells every two to three days


Stability:

1yr stored below –130oC from date of shipment


Storage and Shipping:

For optimal storage, store product in liquid nitrogen vapor until ready to use. Product shipped on dry ice.


Culture Medium:

DMEM + 5% FBS for adherent culture / HyClone HyCell for suspension culture.


Viability:

Cells recover as healthy logarithmically growing cells within 3 to 4 days post thawing. Viability measured to be ≥90%.
