| Background Information | Amyloid beta A4 protein (UniProt P05067; also known as ABPP, Alzheimer disease amyloid protein, Amyloid precursor protein, APP, APPI, Cerebral vascular amyloid peptide, CVAP, PN-II, PreA4, Protease nexin-II) is encoded by the APP (also known as A4, AD1) gene (Gene ID 351) in human. Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is initially produced with a signal peptide sequence (a.a. 1-17), the removal of which yields the mature protein with a large extracellular portion (a.a. 18-699), followed by a transmembrane segment (a.a. 700-723) and a cytoplasmic (a.a. 724-770) tail. APP can be further processed by the α-, β-, and γ-secretases in two alternative processing pathways. In the non-amyloidogenic pathway, APP is first cleaved by the plasma membrane-localized α-secretase to generate an N-terminal extracellular sAPPα fragment (a.a. 18-687) and a membrane-bound C-terminal fragment C83 (CTFα), which can be further cleaved by γ-secretase to produce a non-toxic small peptide p3 and a cytoplasmic APP intracellular domain (AICD). In the amyloidogenic pathway, APP undergoes β-cleavage in BACE-1 (β-site APP-cleaving enzyme)-enriched endosomes to generate an N-terminal extracellular sAPPβ fragment (a.a. 18-671) and a membrane-bound C-terminal fragment C99 (CTFβ). Subsequent cleavage of C99 by γ-secretase releases the amyloid β peptides, Aβ1-42 (672-713) & Aβ1-40 (672-711), and AICD. Aβ accumulation in the cortical and hippocampal regions of the brain is a major pathological feature of Alzheimers disease (AD). Aβ Ser8 phosphorylation is shown to promote Aβ aggregation into oligomeric and fibrillar assemblies and to prevent Aβ proteolytic clearance by certain proteases. |

| Key Applications |
|
| Application Notes | Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected a greatly enhanced nuclear APP immunoreactivity due to an upregulated AICD generation and nuclear localization in HSV-1-infected SH-SY5Y cells by fluorescent immunocytochemistry (De Chiara, G., et al. (2010). PLoS One. 5(11):e13989). Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot immunostained neural progenitor cells (NPCs) isolated from the lateral ventricles of E14 mouse brain by fluorescent immunocytochemistry (Ma, Q.H., et al. (2008). Nat. Cell Biol. 10(3):283-294). Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot immunoprecipitated APP and cleaved APP C-terminal fragments from uninfected and HSV-1-infected SH-SY5Y cells (De Chiara, G., et al. (2010). PLoS One. 5(11):e13989). Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected APP and cleaved APP C-terminal fragments in lysates and APP immunoprecipitates from uninfected and HSV-1-infected SH-SY5Y cells (De Chiara, G., et al. (2010). PLoS One. 5(11):e13989). Western Blotting Analysis: Representative lots detected the stably expressed full-length human APP695 in HEK293-derived BA-3 cells (Hwang, E.M., et al. (2008). Bioorg. Med. Chem. 16(14):6669-6674; Yeon, S.W., et al. (2007). Peptides. 28(4):838-844). Immunofluorescence Analysis: A representative lot immunostained the walls of the lateral ventricles in E14 mouse brain tissue sections by fluorescent immunohistochemistry (Ma, Q.H., et al. (2008). Nat. Cell Biol. 10(3):283-294). Affinity Binding Assay Analysis: A representative lot captured the synthetic peptide representing APP770 a.a. 732-751 or APP695 a.a. 657-676 (Van Vickle, G.D., et al. (2007). Biochemistry. 46(36):10317-10327). |

| Specificity | Clone 2.F2.19B4, also known as the Jonas antibody, regcognizes a C-terminal epitope present in 10 of the 11 human spliced isoforms reported by UniProt (P05067), with APP305 being the only spliced isoform lacking the targeted epitope. Clone 2.F2.19B4 recognizes full-length APP, the APP C-terminal fragments (CTFs) produced by α- and β-secretase cleavage, and the APP intracellular domain (AICD) generated by γ-secretase cleavage, but not the sAPPα or sAPPβ fragment. Epitope has been mapped to APP770 a.a. 732-751, which is equivalent to APP695 a.a. 657-676 (Van Vickle, G.D., et al. (2007). Biochemistry. 46(36):10317-10327). |
