In a recent study published in the Cell, researchers assessed the role of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. ACE2 is one of the most commonly ...

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers presented a microbody recombinant decoy protein with high affinity to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as an option for ...

This leads to systemic cytokine storms, promotes thrombosis, and accelerates ACS. ACE2, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2; ACS, acute coronary syndrome; IL-6, interleukin-6. SARS-CoV-2 infection ...

Scientists at the University of California San Diego and UC Riverside have further studied the molecular pathway used by the SARS-CoV-2 virus to infect human lung cells and subsequently identified a ...

A combination of cryogenic electron microscopy and molecular simulations has been used to study the structure and dynamics of an enzyme called ACE.

Structural and computational approaches uncover the molecular basis for dimerization, open-closed conformational transitions, and the dynamic behavior of the human angiotensin-I converting enzyme ...
