Day 2:
Gene Annotation
Description of function – The ACE2 protein is encoded by ACE2 gene that belongs to the angiotensin-
converting enzyme family of dipeptidyl carboxydipeptidases. ACE2 catalyzes the cleavage of angiotensin I
into angiotensin 1-9, and angiotensin II into the vasodilator angiotensin 1-7. ACE2 plays a role in the
regulation of cardiovascular and renal function, as well as fertility. In addition, this protein is a functional
receptor for the spike glycoprotein of the human coronavirus HCoV-NL63 and the human severe acute
respiratory syndrome coronaviruses, SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2, the latter is the causative agent of
coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19).
