Background InformationAmyloid-beta precursor protein (UniProt: P05067; also known as APP, ABPP, APPI, Alzheimer disease amyloid protein, Amyloid precursor protein, Amyloid-beta A4 protein, Cerebral vascular amyloid peptide, CVAP, PreA4, Protease nexin-II, PN-II) is encoded by the APP (also known as A4, AD1) gene (Gene ID: 351) in human. Under normal conditions A4 functions as a cell surface receptor and performs physiological functions relevant to neurite growth, neuronal adhesion and axonogenesis. APP undergoes extensive post-translational modification including glycosylation, phosphorylation, and tyrosine sulfation, as well as many types of proteolytic processing to generate peptide fragments. APP is proteolytically processed under normal cellular conditions by alpha-secretase or beta-secretase to generate and release soluble APP peptides, S-APP-alpha and S-APP-beta, and the retention of corresponding membrane-anchored C-terminal fragments, C80, C83 and C99. Subsequent processing of C80 and C83 by gamma-secretase yields P3 peptides. In Alzheimer s disease processing of C99 generates amyloid-beta 40 (Abeta40) and amyloid-beta 42 (Abeta42) that form amyloid plaques. Beta-amyloid peptides are lipophilic metal chelators with metal-reducing activity. They bind transient metals such as copper, zinc and iron. Under pathological conditions Amyloid beta A4 protein is the precursor for the disease associated proteins, beta amyloid 1-40, and 1-42, major components of plaques in Alzheimer s disease. Clone M87 recognizes a specific conformation of residues 3-7 of the amyloid beta peptide sequence (EFRHD) found in amyloid fibrils. It does not recognize pyroglutamyl Ab at residue 3. It also reacts with IAPP and alpha-synuclein fibrils but not monomers, indicating that it recognizes a generic, sequence independent epitope. (Ref.: Nussbaum, JM., et al. (2012).
