Anti - BACE2, Asp1 (Beta-Site APP Cleaving Enzyme 2)

May be stored at 4 °C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%). Freeze at -20 °C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 °C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.

The human peptide sequence has high degree of homology (94%) with mouse and rat BACE/Asp2. No significant sequence homology exists with BACE2/Aps1, a homolog of BACE, or other Asps. Antibody crossreactivity in various species is not established. Control peptides, because of their low MW (<3kD), are not suitable for Western. It should be used for ELISA or antibody blocking to confirm antibody specificity
