Human Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme ELISA Kit

This Human Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for quantitative detection of human ACE in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma (heparin) and saliva. Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This human ACE ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for ACE has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(NSO, L30-L1261) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for ACE is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the human ACE amount of sample captured in plate.

Additional Information: The capture antibody is a monoclonal antibody from mouse, the detection antibody is a biotinylated polyclonal antibody from goat. Expression system for standard: Angiotensin-converting enzyme(ACE) is a zinc-containing dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase widely distributed in mammalian tissues and is thought to play a critical role in blood pressure regulation. The predicted protein is identical, from residue 37 to its C terminus, to the second half or C-terminal domain of the endothelial ACE sequence. The protein sequence inferred consists of a 732-residue preprotein including a 31-residue signal peptide. The mature polypeptide has a molecular weight of 80,073. Although ACE has been studied primarily in the context of its role in blood pressure regulation, this widely distributed enzyme has many other physiological functions. The ACE gene encodes two isozymes. The somatic isozyme is expressed in many tissues, including vascular endothelial cells, renal epithelial cells, and testicular Leydig cells, whereas the testicular or germinal angiotensin-converting enzyme is expressed only in sperm. The standard product used in this kit is recombinant human ACE, consisting of 30-1261 amino acids with the molecular mass of 120KDa.; Immunogen sequence: 450
