APP antibody detects the human amyloid A4 protein. Accumulation of the amyloid-beta peptide (Abeta) in the cerebral cortex is a critical event in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. The beta-amyloid protein precursor (APP) is 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 (Abeta), which is deposited in the brains of all suffers of Alzheimer's disease. Anti-APP is ideal for investigators that are involved in Neuroscience research.
应用类型
Western Blot,
免疫原
APP Antibody was produced from whole rabbit serum prepared by repeated immunizations with a peptide corresponding to amino acids of human amyloid A4 protein precursor (APP) corresponding to the n-terminus of the 4K Ab peptide generated by b- and g-secretases. The peptide sequences are identical to those of rabbit, pig, bovine, guinea pig, and chicken.
