Dear Dr. Robinson,

I am looking for sources of antibodies to rat ectoenzymes. The enzymes in
question are:

Group 1 - First Priority

1. Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) , EC 3.4.14.1
2. Neutral Endopeptidase 24.11 (NE-24.11), EC 3.4.24.11 (CD-10)
3. Dipeptidyl Peptidase IV (DPP-IV), EC 3.4.14.5 (CD-26)
4. Aminopeptidase A (APA), EC 3.4.11.7
5. Aminopeptidase N (APN), EC 3.4.11.2 (CD-13)

Group 2 - Second Priority

6. Aminopeptidase B (APB), EC 3.4.11.6
7. Aminopeptidase P (APP), EC 3.4.11.9
8. Aminopeptidase W (APW), EC 3.4.11.16

My biggest need is an antibody source for an antibody that sees rat CD-13
or APN, and one that sees rat ACE. Any ideas?

In addition I would like to join the Bulletin Board. What do I need to do?
My first use of the Bulletin Board will be to post the 8 ectoenzymes above.

Thanks for your help,
