抗人 ACE2 抗体对
01AB03927
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a type I transmembrane protein that plays a vital role in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), primarily functioning to regulate blood pressure and fluid balance. It catalyzes the conversion of angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor, into angiotensin-(1-7), which promotes vasodilation and counteracts the harmful effects of angiotensin II. ACE2 is characterized by its N-terminal peptidase domain and is widely expressed in various tissues, including the lungs, heart, kidneys, and intestines. Beyond its enzymatic functions, ACE2 serves as a receptor for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, facilitating its entry into host cells during COVID-19 infection. This interaction disrupts ACE2's normal regulatory functions, contributing to inflammation and tissue injury.
