NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes an integral membrane glycoprotein that functions as an aspartic protease. The encoded protein cleaves amyloid precursor protein into amyloid beta peptide, which is a critical step in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome. The protein precursor is further processed into an active mature peptide. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
Uniprot Description
BACE2: Responsible for the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Cleaves APP, between residues 690 and 691, leading 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. It has also been shown that it can cleave APP between residues 671 and 672. Belongs to the peptidase A1 family. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The BACE2 bace2 (Catalog #AAA152995) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's BACE2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Blocking (BL). BACE2 peptide is used for blocking the activity of BACE2 antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the BACE2 bace2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "BACE2, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
