General description
β-Site amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleaving enzyme-1 (BACE1), an aspartic protease belongs to the protease family of enzymes comprises of six luminal cysteine residues. These residues help in the formation of three intermolecular disulfide bonds and N-linked glycosylation sites.
Application
β-Secretase inhibitor has been used as β-site amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleaving enzyme-1 (BACE1) inhibitor in BACE1 inhibitor assay.(2)
β-Secretase inhibitor may be used to inhibit BACE1 in studies related to AD.
Biochem/physiol Actions
β-Site amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleaving enzyme-1 (BACE1) is a β-secretase that initiates the production of amyloid protein in Alzheimer′s dieases (AD) patients. β-Secretase inhibitors decrease the generation of β amyloid and formation of amyloid plaques typical of AD.

Amyloid-β (Aβ) is generated by proteolytic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by beta-secretase (BACE-1) and gamma-secretase. Amyloid-β is responsible for the formation of senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Consequently, inhibition of β-secretase (BACE-1), a rate-limiting enzyme in the

β-Site amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleaving enzyme-1 (BACE1) is the β-secretase that initiates Aβ production in Alzheimer's disease (AD). BACE1 levels are increased in AD, which could contribute to pathogenesis, yet the mechanism of BACE1 elevation is unclear. Furthermore, the
