This is a synthetic peptide designed for use in combination with anti-Bace1 Antibody,. It may block above mentioned antibody from binding to its target protein in western blot and/or immunohistochecmistry under proper experimental settings. There is no guarantee for its use in other applications.
Bace1 is responsible for the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Bace1 cleaves at the N-terminus of the A-beta peptide sequence, between residues 671 and 672 of APP, leads to the generation and extracellular release of beta-cleaved soluble APP, and a corresponding cell-associated C-terminal fragment which is later released by gamma-secretase.
