Biochem/physiol Actions

Secreted Amyloid Precursor Protein α (sAPPα) is a 612 amino acid protein produced from the ubiquitously expressed β-Amyloid precursor protein (βAPP), 695 isoform, by α-secretase cleavage. sAPPα (304-612) is a fragment of sAPPα designed to lack the N-terminal domain of the full length protein.

Physical form

0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4.

Preparation Note

Expressed as a soluble protein and purified under non-denaturing conditions.

A role for beta-amyloid precursor protein (beta-APP) in the development of Alzheimer's disease has been indicated by genetics, and many conditions in which beta-APP is raised have been associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease or an Alzheimer's-like pathology.

Amyloid beta/A4 protein precursor (APP) is secreted into medium by most cultured cells and can function as an autocrine factor. To study the biological function of secreted forms of APP (sAPP) on neurons, we used a clonal CNS neuronal line

The amyloid protein precursor (APP) of Alzheimer's disease is synthesized as an integral transmembrane protein that is released from cells in culture following proteolytic cleavage. The function of released APP is not known, although there is evidence that the protein
