Standards and test samples are added to the wells and incubated. A biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat, specific for ACE (CD143) is then added followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex is added and unbound conjugates are washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. TMB is then used to visualize the HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB is catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changes into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow coloration is directly proportional to the Human ACE (CD143) amount of sample captured in plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions--20°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions--20°C, Storage information--20°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nAngiotensin Converting Enzyme 1 also known as ACE1 or ACE is an important enzyme in the renin-angiotensin system. This enzyme exhibits a significant role in blood pressure regulation. ACE1 is a zinc-metallopeptidase with a molecular weight of approximately 130 kDa. It converts angiotensin I into the potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II a critical function in cardiovascular physiology. ACE1 is widely expressed in endothelial cells particularly in the lungs kidneys and the small intestine.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe enzyme generates angiotensin II by cleaving angiotensin I. Angiotensin II an important effector peptide impacts cardiovascular and renal systems influencing vasoconstriction and fluid balance. While not directly forming a complex ACE1's activity increases the potency of angiotensin II which binds to angiotensin II receptors to exert its effects therefore indirectly forming a functional signaling complex.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nACE1 plays a central role in the renin-angiotensin system and the kallikrein-kinin system. The enzyme's activity boosts angiotensin II production which connects it to the regulation of blood pressure via the renin-angiotensin pathway. ACE1 also indirectly interacts with proteins like bradykinin by degrading them modulating kinin-related functions and influencing inflammation and tension in vascular smooth muscle.\u003cbr\u003e\nUnderstanding ACE1 is important for addressing hypertension and congestive heart failure. ACE1's conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II means overactivity can cause elevated blood pressure leading to hypertension. This makes ACE inhibitors such as lisinopril and ramipril therapeutic for these conditions. Furthermore its connection with aldosterone production places ACE1 in relevance to heart failure as excessive aldosterone can cause detrimental remodeling of cardiac tissue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843572191401,"sku":"ab119577","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab119577","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
