Recombinant Human BACE1 Protein

• Cat.No.: BACE1-781H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human BACE1 protein without tag was expressed in HEK293.

Specification

• Description: This gene encodes a member of the peptidase A1 family of aspartic proteases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protease. This transmembrane protease catalyzes the first step in the formation of amyloid beta peptide from amyloid precursor protein. Amyloid beta peptides are the main constituent of amyloid beta plaques, which accumulate in the brains of human Alzheimer's disease patients.

Q&As

Are there any potential side effects associated with BACE1 inhibition?

Yes, several clinical trials are underway to assess the safety and efficacy of BACE1 inhibitors in treating Alzheimer's disease.

How is BACE1 linked to Alzheimer's disease?

BACE1 is implicated in Alzheimer's disease as it initiates the cleavage of APP, leading to the formation of beta-amyloid plaques, a hallmark of the disease.

How can BACE1 inhibitors potentially benefit Alzheimer's patients?

BACE1 inhibitors may slow down or prevent the accumulation of beta-amyloid plaques, potentially delaying the progression of Alzheimer's disease.

Are there any ongoing clinical trials involving BACE1 inhibitors?

Yes, several clinical trials are underway to assess the safety and efficacy of BACE1 inhibitors in treating Alzheimer's disease.

Are there clinical applications of BACE1 inhibitors?

Yes, BACE1 inhibitors are being explored as potential therapeutic agents for Alzheimer's disease to reduce the production of beta-amyloid peptides.
