Invitrogen™ BACE2 Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ PA1754

Catalog No. PA1754

Description

PA1-754 detects human and mouse beta-secretase 2 (BACE2) from transfected cells. This product has recently been remanufactured in new rabbits as Cat. # PA1-1754. PA1-754 has been successfully used in Western blot and ICC/IF procedures. By Western blot this antibody detects an ~58 kDa protein representing BACE2 from SY-SY5Y cells overexpressing the human gene. The PA1-754 immunogen is amino acid residues 503-518 from human BACE2. This sequence is completely conserved in mouse. The PA1-754 immunizing peptide (Cat. # PEP-167) is available for use in neutralization and control experiments.

BACE2 or Beta Secretase 2 is responsible for the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). BACE2 cleaves APP between residues 690 and 691. This cleavage leads to the generation and extracellular release of beta-cleaved soluble APP. BACE2 is also know to cleave APP between residues 671 and 672. Accumulation of APP is a signature of Alzheimer disease and frequent complication of adult Down syndrome patients.
