Anticorps Anti - BACE 1, N- Terminus(46 - 62) produit dans un anticorps de lapin, isolé affinité, solution aqueuse tamponnée

Non disponible en dehors du Royaume-Uni et de l'Irlande

Application

Anti-BACE 1, N-Terminus (46-62) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Overexpression of β-site APP cleaving enzyme, Asp2 or memapsin 2 (BACE-1) leads to increased β-secretase activity while displaying appropriate cleavage site specificity for APP. The N-glycosylation and phosphorylation of BACE-1 within its C-terminal domain regulated its intracellular trafficking.

General description

The membrane-associated aspartic protease BACE-1 (β-site APP cleaving enzyme, Asp2 or memapsin 2) has been identified as β-secretase. BACE-1 constitutes the predominant β-secretase activity in human brain tissue. It is highly expressed in neurons, the major site of Aβ generation. BACE-1 is localized within the Golgi and endosomal compartments, among the several intracellular sites where Aβ is thought to be produced. BACE-1 is initially an inactive proenzyme and localized in endoplasmic reticulum.
