FAQ

What is the mechanism of fluorescence increase?

The fluorescence of the ACE-2 substrate significantly increases (by 300 times) upon enzyme cleavage, allowing for effective monitoring of ACE-2 activity.

How should I store the substrate?

It’s best to store the ACE-2 substrate at -20°C, avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve its activity and integrity.

Can this substrate be used in vivo?

This substrate is primarily designed for in vitro assays. For in vivo studies, consider using a labeled version or related products such as our PKG substrate or Autocamtide-2.
