SYBR Green qPCR primers for detecting human ACE2 (angiotensin converting enzyme 2, also called ACEH) gene expression by real-time PCR.
Human ACE2 qPCR Primer Set – angiotensin converting enzyme 2
Also known as: ACEH
About this gene: The ACE2 protein belongs to the angiotensin-converting enzyme family of dipeptidyl carboxydipeptidases and has considerable homology to human angiotensin 1 converting enzyme. This secreted protein catalyzes the cleavage of angiotensin I into angiotensin 1-9, and angiotensin II into the vasodilator angiotensin 1-7. ACE2 is known to be expressed in various human organs, and its organ- and cell-specific expression suggests that it may play a role in the regulation of cardiovascular and renal function, as well as fertility.
Gene details: NCBI Gene ID: 59272; HGNC ID: HGNC:13557; UniProt: Q9BYF1; RefSeq (MANE Select): NM_001371415.1; Chromosome location: Xp22.2
What you get: Primers are provided as a 40 µl solution containing both primers at a final concentration of 50 µM in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 0.1 mM EDTA. Dilute with H2O as needed prior to use. This amount is sufficient for 1,000 PCR reactions of 20 µl, assuming a final primer concentration of 0.1 µM.
