Table 1. Kinetic Parameters, Vmax and Km, for the substrates, MCA-RPGFSAFK-Dnp and 7-Mca-YVADAPK-Dnp, for ACE and ACE2, respectively.

Enzyme Vmax (AFU/min/μg of protein) Km (μM)
Recombinant Human ACE2 125 ± 13 23 ± 0.5
Human MNC ACE2 15 ± 4 57 ± 0.6
Murine MNC ACE2 22 ± 6 89 ± 1.9
Recombinant Human ACE 395 ± 70 57 ± 0.8
Human MNC ACE 53 ± 8 68 ± 1.7
Murine MNC ACE 57 ± 14 106 ± 2.7

A representative of time versus substrate hydrolysis curves for each sample shown above is provided in Fig 2. Assays were repeated four times in case of recombinant enzymes or carried out in four different samples in case of human and murine MNCs.
