Droplet microfluidic screening to engineer angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) catalytic activity
Abstract Background Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a crucial peptidase in human peptide hormone signaling, catalyzing the conversion of Angiotensin-II to Angiotensin-(1–7), which activates the Mas receptor and elicits vasodilation, increased blood flow, reduced inflammation, and decreased...
