Validation
Independent Antibody Validation in Cell lines (Figure 2) shows similar BACE expression profile in human cell lines detected by two independent anti-BACE antibodies that recognize different epitopes, MBS150291 against C-terminus domain and 32-238 against recombinant fragment protein. BACE proteins are detected in all the tested cell lines except K562 at different expression levels by the two independent antibodies.
KO validation (Figure 6,9): Anti-BACE antibody (MBS150291) specificity was further verified by BACE KO mice (figure6) and KO cell line (figure9). BACE signal was not detected in BACE KO mice and KO cell line.
KD validation (Figure 7,8,10): Anti-BACE antibody (MBS150291) specificity was verified by BACE specific siRNA knockdown. BACE signal in mouse brain injected with BACE siRNAs and DRG transfected with BACE siRNAs was disrupted in comparison with control.
Overexpression validation (Figure 6): Anti-BACE antibody (MBS150291) detected high expression levels of BACE in 293 cells transfected with hBACE or mBACE (figure6) as compared to eGFP transfected cells.
Isoforms
Human BACE 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 has only 1 isoform (501aa, 55.7kD). Rat BACE has only one isoform identified so far (501aa, 55.8kD).
Preparation and Storage
BACE antibody can be stored at 4 degree C for three months and -20 degree C, stable for up to one year. As with all antibodies care should be taken to avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.

Related Product Information for anti-BACE1 antibody
BACE Antibody: 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.

NCBI Description

Cerebral deposition of amyloid beta peptide is an early and critical feature of Alzheimer's disease. Amyloid beta peptide is generated by proteolytic cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by two proteases, one of which is the protein encoded by this gene. The encoded protein, a member of the peptidase A1 protein family, is a type I integral membrane glycoprotein and aspartic protease that is found mainly in the Golgi. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

Uniprot Description

BACE: an integral membrane glycoprotein and aspartic protease that is found mainly in the Golgi. Cleaves APP at the amino terminus of the A-beta peptide sequence, leading to the generation and extracellular release of beta-cleaved soluble APP, and a corresponding cell-associated carboxy-terminal fragment which is later release by gamma-secretase. Four splice-variant isoforms have been described.

Protein type: Protease; Membrane protein, integral; EC 3.4.23.46

Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the BACE1 bace1 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 "BACE, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.
