Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is broken down by beta-secretase (BACE), a transmembrane aspartic proteinase, to produce the soluble ectodomain (sAPPbeta) and its C-terminal fragment (CTFbeta). Therapeutics for Alzheimer's disease (AD) frequently target BACE. The enzyme comes in two different varieties: BACE1 and BACE2.
The hallmark neuropathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the deposition of amyloid-protein (A) to produce neuritic plaques. By cleavages caused by - and -secretases, A is produced from APP. The -secretase BACE1 causes severe side effects when inhibited, whereas BACE2 suppresses A normally by cleaving APP/A at the -site (Phe20) in the A domain.
