Western blot of purified anti-BACE1 antibody (clone A17035K). Lane 1: Molecular weight marker; Lane 2: 20 µg of total human brain lysate; Lane 3: 20 µg of human brain membrane lysate. The blot was incubated with 1.0 µg/mL of the primary antibody overnight at 4°C, followed by incubation with HRP-labeled goat anti-mouse IgG (Cat. No. 405301). Enhanced chemiluminescence (Cat. No. 426302) was used as the detection system. -
Direct ELISA of purified anti-BACE1 antibody (clone A17035K) binding to plate-immobilized recombinant human BACE1 (Cat. No. 719104). ELISA was performed by coating wells with 100ng of BACE1 protein. The wells were then incubated with the primary antibody at 37°C for 45 minutes, followed by incubation with horseradish peroxidase labeled goat anti-mouse secondary antibody. TMB (3, 3', 5, 5' tetramethylbenzidine, Cat. No. 421501) was used as the detection system.

Beta-site APP-cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1), also known as aspartyl protease 2 (ASP-2) and memapsin 2, is a type I transmembrane aspartic protease with 501 amino acid that is related to the pepsin family and the retroviral aspartic proteases. The BACE1 catalytic domain contains aspartic protease active site motifs at amino acids 93-96 and 289-292, with each motif containing the highly conserved sequence defining aspartic proteases, D(T/S)G(T/S). BACE1 is expressed at low levels in most cell types of the body, although it is more highly expressed in neurons. In the brain, the protein is highly expressed in the substantia nigra, locus coruleus, and medulla oblongata. It is localized within acidic intracellular compartments including endosomes and trans-Golgi network (TGN). In the brain, BACE1 is involved in proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) which generates the b amyloid peptide- a peptide that is associated with Alzheimer’s disease. BACE1 cleaves APP at the N-terminus of the b amyloid peptide sequence, between residues 671 and 672, which leads to extracellular release of b-cleaved soluble APP, and a corresponding cell-associated C-terminal fragment which is later released by g-secretase. The physiological function of BACE1 is not clearly understood, although it may modulate sodium currents by cleavage of voltage-gated Na+ channel accessory subunits (Navβ1-4). Also, BACE1 has been implicated in the regulation of myelination and myelin sheath thickness and in the control of motor coordination via cleavage of neuregulin-1 and neuregulin-3, and also in axon guidance via cleavage of close homolog of L1 (CHL1).
