| Application: | Human amyloid precursor protein α secreted, has been used in enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Amyloid precursor protein α is an α-secretase-cleaved soluble protein that has been shown to have neuroprotective properties. It is derived from amyloid precursor protein. The protein consists of 612 amino acids. Several G protein-coupled receptors are known to activate α-secretase-dependent processing of APP. It has neuroprotective, neurogenic and neurotrophic functions. Amyloid precursor protein a also stimulates gene expression and protein expression. |
| General description: | The APP (amyloid precursor protein) gene is mapped to human chromosome 21q21.3. It encodes a integral membrane protein. APPα is a soluble protein generated by sequential cleavage with α and γ secretase. |
