Monoclonal Antibodies 1G12 and 6A12 to the N-domain of human angiotensin-converting enzyme: fine epitope mapping and antibody-based detection of ACE inhibitors in human blood.

Abstract excerpt

Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE), a key enzyme in cardiovascular pathophysiology, consists of two homologous domains (N- and C-), each bearing a Zn-dependent active site. ACE inhibitors are among the most prescribed drugs in the treatment of hypertension and cardiac failure. Fine epitope mapping of two monoclonal antibodies (mAb), 1G12 and 6A12, against the N-domain of human ACE, was developed using the...
