Crystal Structure of Human Beta Secretase in Complex with Compound 11a
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23981898
Function
[BACE1_HUMAN] Responsible for the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Cleaves at the N-terminus of the A-beta peptide sequence, between residues 671 and 672 of APP, leads to the generation and extracellular release of beta-cleaved soluble APP, and a corresponding cell-associated C-terminal fragment which is later released by gamma-secretase.[1] [2]
About this Structure
4lxa is a 3 chain structure with sequence from Human. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
