Expression Host | HEK293 Cells |
Sequence | Met 1-Thr 457 |
Accession | NP_036236.1 |
Calculated Molecular Weight | 49.0 kDa |
Observed Molecular Weight | 65 kDa |
Tag | None |
Bio-activity | Measured by its ability to cleave a fluorescent peptide substrate Mca-Ser-Glu-Val-Asn-Leu-Asp-Ala-Glu-Phe-Arg-Lys(Dpn)-Arg-Arg-NH2 (Catalog# ES004, R&D Systems). Cleavage of ES004 can be measured using excitation and emission wavelength of 320 and 405 nm, respectively. The specific activity is > 3. 5 pmoles/min/μg. |
Purity | > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method. |
Storage | Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80℃. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8℃ for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20℃ for 3 months. |
Shipping | This product is provided as lyophilized powder which is shipped with ice packs. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from sterile 50mM Tris, 100mM NaCl, pH 8.0 Normally 5% - 8% trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual. |
Reconstitution | Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information. |
Background | Beta-site APP-cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) is an aspartic-acid protease important in the formation of myelin sheaths in peripheral nerve cells. In the brain; This protein is expressed highly in the substantia nigra; locus coruleus and medulla oblongata. Strong BACE1 expression has also been described in pancreatic tissue. BACE1 has a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. In Alzheimer's disease patients; BACE1 levels were elevated although mRNA levels were not changed. It has been found that BACE1 gene expression is controlled by a TATA-less promoter. The translational repression as a new mechanism controlling its expression. And the low concentrations of Ca(2+) (microM range) significantly increased the proteolytic activity of BACE1. Furthermore; BACE1 protein is ubiquitinated; and the degradation of BACE1 proteins and amyloid precursor protein processing are regulated by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. It has also been identified as the rate limiting enzyme for amyloid-beta-peptide (Abeta) production. |
