ACE2 peptide library - 0.5 mg

Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is an enzyme involved in the cardiovascular system by decreasing arterial pressure by catalyzing the conversion of angiotensin II to angiotensin (1-7). Angiotensin II is a vasoconstrictor and angiotensin (1-7) is a vasodilatator. This effect makes ACE2 a therapeutic target for cardiovascular disease. Otherwise, ACE2 also corresponds to a receptor allowing the coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) to enter the host cell. sb-PEPTIDE provides ACE2 as an overlaped library with peptides of 15 amino acids with an overlap of 11 amino acids. 1 peptide per well.
