Human Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)/ also known as ACEH/ is an integral membrane protein found on the surface of cells in the lungs/ arteries/ heart/ kidney/ and intestines. ACE2 serves as the entry point into cells for some coronaviruses/ including the two strains that caused outbreaks of Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV) and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (SARS-CoV-2).
The ACE2 Lentivirus are replication incompetent/ HIV-based/ VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviral particles that are ready to be transduced into almost all types of mammalian cells/ including primary and non-dividing cells. The particles contain an ACE2 gene (NM_021804.3) driven by an EF1a promoter.
