Stability Test
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37℃ for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate isless than 8% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
-
Storage & Shelf Life
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
-
Shipping
In general, recombinant proteins are supplied as lyophilized powder and shipped at ambient temperature. For bulk packages, the proteins are provided as frozen liquid and shipped with blue ice, unless otherwise requested by the customer.

Protein Description
ECE2 (Endothelin-converting enzyme 2) is a membrane-bound metalloprotease that plays a pivotal role in the processing of endothelins, which are key regulators of various physiological processes, including blood pressure, vascular tone, and cell proliferation. The study of ECE2 is particularly important due to its implications in cardiovascular diseases and other pathological conditions. This enzyme is responsible for the cleavage of big endothelin-1 into its active form, endothelin-1, which has potent vasoconstrictive properties. However, ECE2 is not just limited to endothelin processing; it also participates in the metabolism of other peptide substrates, adding to its biological significance. Research into the ECE2 protein has deepened our understanding of its structural and functional characteristics, including the identification of its active sites and substrate specificity. Furthermore, advances in recombinant protein technology have facilitated the production of ECE2 for in vitro studies, enabling scientists to investigate its enzymatic activity, regulatory mechanisms, and potential as a therapeutic target. Given the enzyme's association with conditions such as hypertension, heart failure, and cancer, ongoing research aims to explore ECE2 inhibitors as potential treatment strategies. Therefore, unraveling the complexities of ECE2 not only enhances our knowledge of cardiovascular biology but also holds promise for the development of novel therapeutic approaches.
