BACE-1 Antibody - BSA Free

Immunohistochemistry: Rabbit Polyclonal BACE-1 Antibody [NBP1-77307] - Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed mouse liver tissue labeling BACE with 2253 at 10 ug/mL, followed by goat anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody at 1/500 dilution (red) and DAPI staining (blue).

Immunohistochemistry Validation of BACE in Human Liver. Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human liver tissue using anti-BACE antibody at 2 ug/ml. Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 10% serum for 1 h at RT; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation with a citrate buffer (pH6). Samples were incubated with primary antibody overnight at 4C. A goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) at 1/250 was used as secondary. Counter stained with Hematoxylin.

BACE-1 Antibody - BSA Free Summary

• Immunogen: Antibody was raised against a peptide corresponding to 17 amino acids near the carboxy terminus of human BACE. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of BACE. Amino Acid Squence: CLRQQHDDFADDISLL
• Specificity: Human BACE-1 has 6 isoforms, including isoform A (501aa, 55.8kD), isoform B (476aa, 52.9kD), isoform C (457aa, 51.1kD), isoform D (432aa, 48.2kD), isoform 5 (401aa, 45kD) and isoform 6 (376aa, 42.2kD). This antibody detects all human isoforms. Mouse BACE-1 has only 1 isoform (501aa, 55.7kD). Rat BACE-1 has only one isoform identified so far (501aa, 55.8kD).

Background

Accumulation of the amyloid-beta (Abeta) plaque in the cerebral cortex is a critical event in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Abeta peptide is generated by proteolytic cleavage of the beta-amyloid protein precursor (APP) at beta- and gamma-sites by two proteases. APP is first cleaved by beta-secretase, producing a soluble derivative of the protein and a membrane anchored 99-amino acid carboxy-terminal fragment (C99). The C99 fragment serves as substrate for gamma-secretase to generate the 4 kDa amyloid-beta peptide, which is deposited in the brains of all suffers of Alzheimer's disease. The long-sought beta-secretase was recently identified by several groups independently and designated beta-site APP cleaving enzyme (BACE) and aspartyl protease 2 (Asp2). BACE/Asp2 is a novel transmembrane aspartic protease and colocalizes with APP.
