Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a type I integral membrane protain. ACE2 is known to be localized in various organs such as lungs, stomach, small intestine, heart, testis and kidney [1]. It is also a component of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), which plays mediating role in cardiovascular system [2]. The most recent studies shows, that the ACE2 has been identified as a functional receptor for the acute respiratory syndrome viruses [3][4].

Function
ACE2 is a carboxypeptidase, which plays role in renin-angiotensin system (RAS)[5] as an antagonist of the ACE. Angiotensin II plays the central role in the RAS; and its production is catalized by ACE. ACE2 inactivates peptide angiotensine II (Ang II) by removing the C-terminal amino acid phenylalanine [6] Both ACE and ACE2 cleave Ang I, but instead of bechave as dipeptidase, The N-terminal domain of ACE2 cleaves Angiotensin I to produce Ang-(1-9), by removing the single C-terminal Leu residue [7].
Coexpression of ACE2 with B0AT1 plays role in amino acid transport. Specific interaction of both ACE2 and B0AT1 inrease expression of the B0AT1[8] Also ACE2 functions as a chaperone for the B0AT1[9].
Over- and/or underrepresented expression of the enzyme define a critical role in cardiovascular diseases [10].
ACE2 facilitates HCoV-NL63[11], SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 entry, that is causing COVID-19 epidemic[12]. B0AT1 interacts with aminopeptidase N, another coronavirus receptor [13], but possibility of blocking of the ACE2 cleavage and suppressing of the SARS-CoV-2 infection will have been studying[14]
Structure
The protein has considerable homology to human angeotensin converting enzyme (ACE); Single catalitic domain (amino acids 147-555) residues shared 41,8% identity with the human ACE. C-terminal end (amino acids 614-805) of the ACE2 protein shares 47,8% identity with its paralogue protein called collectrin [15].
Human ACE2 enzyme is composed of 805 amino acids. Extracelular region of the human ACE2 enzyme is composed of an N-terminal zinc metallopeptidase domain and a C-terminal collectrin-like domain ended with a transmembrane helix.
Location
ACE2 gene is located in Chromosome X on forward strand.
