Highlights:
This HEK293-hACE2 cell line is derived from HEK293 cells by transducing lentivirus particles encoding human angiotensin I converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) gene. The cell line stably expresses hACE2 and is an excellent cell resource for in vitro drug screening and characterization against coronaviruses including SARS-CoV-2 virus.
- Stable express of human ACE2
- Ready-to-use in cell-based assays such as screening for inhibitors against human ACE2
- Ideal tool for antibody neutralization assay against SAR-CoV-2 virus

Description:
Human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) is an enzyme on the cell membranes of cell in multiple organs such as lungs, heart, kidney, arteries and intestines. It serves as a critical entry receptor for many coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, as well as SARS-CoV-2 that causes COVID-19, a pandemic disease.
