Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine monoclonal antibodies recognizing the C-terminal domain of human ACE are useful tools for quantification of testicular isoform of angiotensin I-converting enzyme expression on human live and fixed spermatozoa and further adequate analysis of the tACE role in reproduction. The development of adequate quantitative assays of expression of the testicular isoform of angiotensin I-converting enzyme on the surface of ejaculated spermatozoa might be important for further studies about the role of the enzyme in male fertility Homo sapiens
