Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and BACE-1 present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-human BACE-1 antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of BACE-1 bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis ELISA antibody pair detects human BACE-1, it also can recognize mouse BACE-1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions--20°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions--20°C, Storage information--20°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nBACE1 also known as beta-site APP cleaving enzyme 1 or beta-secretase plays an important role in the cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP). This cleavage results in the production of amyloid-beta peptides which are associated with Alzheimer's disease. BACE1 is a membrane-bound aspartic protease and has a molecular weight of approximately 50100 Da. The enzyme expresses mostly in the brain's neurons and some secretory tissues.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nBACE1 initiates the amyloidogenic pathway of APP processing which involves amyloid-beta generation. BACE1 doesn't function alone but acts as part of a complex that aids in protein substrate recognition and processing. Its activity contributes to physiological processes like myelination and axonal guidance indicating its importance beyond amyloid production.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nBACE1 is integral to the amyloidogenic pathway which is important in Alzheimer's disease development. It interacts with proteins such as presenilin 1 a part of the gamma-secretase complex that further processes the amyloid-beta precursor. Furthermore BACE1 links to synaptic functions and neural signaling pathways highlighting its multifaceted roles.\u003cbr\u003e\nBACE1 holds significance in Alzheimer's disease due to its role in amyloid-beta peptide production. This connection has led to the development of BACE1 inhibitors as potential therapeutic agents. Additionally BACE1’s involvement in other neural functions ties it to cognitive impairments. It also relates to APP through its function in Alzheimer's suggesting targeted strategies for treatment could involve modulating BACE1 activity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855672070313,"sku":"ab267637","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab267637","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
