Human APP Protein, His Tag (active enzyme, MALS verified)
Synonym
ABPP, APPI, Amyloid-beta A4 protein
Source
Human APP Protein, His Tag (APP-H52H3) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Leu 18 - Met 687 (Accession # P05067-1).
Predicted N-terminus: Leu 18
Molecular Characterization
This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 77.9 kDa. The protein migrates as 95-130 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
Endotoxin
Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method / rFC method.
Purity
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant.

Background
Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a type I integral membrane protein ubiquitously expressed in many tissues and concentrated in the synapses of neurons. The majority of APP is cleaved at the plasma membrane by the α-secretase in the non-amyloidogenic pathway. The amyloidogenic pathway starts with β-secretase cleavage by BACE1 on the N-terminal part of the Aβ domain, releasing sAPPβ from a membrane-anchored fragment named βCTF or C103, which is subsequently cleaved by γ-secretase to release Aβ.
