Cat. No. 489 011 |
100 µg purified IgG, lyophilized. Albumin and azide were added for stabilization. For reconstitution add 100 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Then aliquot and store at -20°C to -80°C until use. Antibodies should be stored at +4°C when still lyophilized. Do not freeze! |

Amyloid beta precursor like protein 1 and 2 (APLP1 and 2) and amyloid precursor protein (APP) belong to one protein family that all share considerable sequence homolgy in the amino- and carboxyl termini (1, 2). In contrast to APP, APLP1 and 2 do not contain the Abeta motif. Like APP, APLP1 and 2 are processed by alpha-, beta-, and gamma-secretase leading to a secreted ecto-domain and a membrane-anchored C-terminal fragment (3). APLPs function as synaptic adhesion molecules (SAMs) and are involved in synaptogenesis (4).
In contrast to the ubiquitously expressed APLP2, APLP1 selectively occurs in neuronal cells and has been shown to accumulate in neuritic plaques during Alzheimer’s disease(4, 5).
