Recommended dilutions
ELISA: Use at an assay dependent dilution.
IHC-P: 1/10 - 1/100. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol. Sodium citrate buffer pH 6.0 is recommended for this purpose.
WB: 1/50 - 1/100. Predicted molecular weight: 170 (somatic) or 90 (germinal) kDa.

Is unsuitable for FACS.

Not tested in other applications.
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Positive control 
(see definition)

Human kidney.

Relevance 

ACE converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II by release of the terminal His-Leu, this results in an increase of the vasoconstrictor activity of angiotensin. Also able to inactivate bradykinin, a potent vasodilatator. ACE exists in two forms, a 170KD somatic form and a 90KD germinal form. The somatic form is expressed by endothelial cells (especially those of lung capillaries and arterioles), epithelial cells (especially in proximal renal tubules and small intestine), by some neuronal cells and variably by some macrophages and T lymphocytes. The germinal form is expressed by spermatozoa.
