Abstract excerpt
Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE, peptidyl dipeptidase, EC 3.4.15.2) is a key enzyme in cardiovascular pathophysiology. A wide spectrum of monoclonal antibodies to different epitopes on the N and C domains of human ACE has been used to study different aspects of ACE biology. In this study we characterized the monoclonal antibody (mAb) 5F1, developed against the N domain of human ACE, which recognizes both the...
