Lanes 1 - 4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab108394 observed at 70 kDa. Red - loading control, ab9484, observed at 37 kDa.

ab108394 was shown to recognize BACE1 in wild type cells as signal was lost at the expected MW in BACE1 knockout cells. Additional cross-reactive bands were observed in the wild-type and knockout cells. Wild-type and BACE1 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab108394 and ab9484 (Mouse anti GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

In Western blot, ab108394 was shown to bind specifically to BACE1. A band was observed at 60/70 kDa in wild-type SH-SY5Y cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in Bace1 knockout cell line ab280078 (knockout cell lysate ab280137). To generate this image, wild-type and Bace1 knockout SH-SY5Y cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.

Supplementary information

BACE1 also known as beta-site APP cleaving enzyme 1 or beta-secretase plays an important role in the cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP). This cleavage results in the production of amyloid-beta peptides which are associated with Alzheimer's disease. BACE1 is a membrane-bound aspartic protease and has a molecular weight of approximately 50100 Da. The enzyme expresses mostly in the brain's neurons and some secretory tissues.
Biological function summary

BACE1 initiates the amyloidogenic pathway of APP processing which involves amyloid-beta generation. BACE1 doesn't function alone but acts as part of a complex that aids in protein substrate recognition and processing. Its activity contributes to physiological processes like myelination and axonal guidance indicating its importance beyond amyloid production.

Pathways

BACE1 is integral to the amyloidogenic pathway which is important in Alzheimer's disease development. It interacts with proteins such as presenilin 1 a part of the gamma-secretase complex that further processes the amyloid-beta precursor. Furthermore BACE1 links to synaptic functions and neural signaling pathways highlighting its multifaceted roles.

BACE1 holds significance in Alzheimer's disease due to its role in amyloid-beta peptide production. This connection has led to the development of BACE1 inhibitors as potential therapeutic agents. Additionally BACE1’s involvement in other neural functions ties it to cognitive impairments. It also relates to APP through its function in Alzheimer's suggesting targeted strategies for treatment could involve modulating BACE1 activity.

Target data

Responsible for the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Cleaves at the N-terminus of the A-beta peptide sequence, between residues 671 and 672 of APP, leads 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 (PubMed : 10656250, PubMed : 10677483, PubMed : 20354142). Cleaves CHL1 (By similarity).
