" /> Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2;

MeSH definition : A transmembrane glycoprotein with an extracellular catalytic domain which functions as a carboxypeptidase. It cleaves a single C-terminal residue from a distinct range of substrates. The catalytic efficiency is 400-fold higher with ANGIOTENSIN II as a substrate than with ANGIOTENSIN I. Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 is also is a functional receptor for the spike glycoprotein (SPIKE PROTEIN, CORONAVIRUS) of the CORONAVIRUSES SARS-COV, SARS-COV2, and HCOV-NL63.;

MeSH synonym : Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2; ACE2 Protein; ACE2 Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Protein 2; ACE2 Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Protein 2; ACE-Related Carboxypeptidase; ACE Related Carboxypeptidase; Carboxypeptidase, ACE-Related; Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme-Related Carboxypeptidase; Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Related Carboxypeptidase; Carboxypeptidase, Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme-Related; ACE2 Enzyme;
