| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Overexpression of β-site APP cleaving enzyme, Asp2 or memapsin 2 (BACE-1) leads to increased β-secretase activity while displaying appropriate cleavage site specificity for APP. The N-glycosylation and phosphorylation of BACE-1 within its C-terminal domain regulated its intracellular trafficking. |

| General description: | The membrane-associated aspartic protease BACE-1 (β-site APP cleaving enzyme, Asp2 or memapsin 2) has been identified as β-secretase. BACE-1 constitutes the predominant β-secretase activity in human brain tissue. It is highly expressed in neurons, the major site of Aβ generation. BACE-1 is localized within the Golgi and endosomal compartments, among the several intracellular sites where Aβ is thought to be produced. BACE-1 is initially an inactive proenzyme and localized in endoplasmic reticulum. |
| Immunogen: | synthetic peptide corresponding to the N-terminus of human BACE-1 (amino acids 46-62). |
