Additional processing of CTF99 by γ-secretase generates the amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) that forms aggregates in the brains of Alzheimer disease (AD) patients. BACE is an attractive target for inhibitors in AD therapy since it catalyzes the first and rate limiting step in amyloidogenic APP processing (1). Pro-BACE-1 is synthesized in the ER before it is transported to the trans-Golgi network to undergo maturation (2). BACE-1 functions as a dimer and is phosphorylated at Ser498 by casein kinase 1, which is necessary for recycling back to the membrane from the early endosome (3,4).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nAPP beta-secretase; Asp 2; ASP2; Aspartyl protease 2; BACE; BACE1; Beta-secretase 1; beta-secretase 1 precursor variant 1; beta-site amyloid beta A4 precursor protein-cleaving enzyme; Beta-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1; Beta-site APP cleaving enzyme 1; beta-site APP-cleaving enzyme; beta-site APP-cleaving enzyme 1; FLJ90568; HSPC104; KIAA1149; Memapsin-2; Membrane-associated aspartic protease 2; transmembrane aspartic proteinase Asp2\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H R","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800577331369,"sku":"13907V3","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-13907v3","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
