  • Novel beta-secretase and modulation of beta-secretase activity
    Publication number: 20060183160
    Abstract: The invention concerns a novel ?-secretase, a method of partially purifying this novel ?-secretase, and its use in assays to screen for potential drug candidates against Alzheimer's disease and other neurological diseases. The novel ?-secretase has an estimated molecular weight of about 32-39 kDa or 22-26 kDa in HEK293 cell membrane extracts and human brain samples, respectively, as calculated from radiation inactivation analysis, and has a pH optimum at about pH 6.5-7.0.
    Type: Application
    Filed: April 12, 2006
    Publication date: August 17, 2006
    Applicant: Scios, Inc.
    Inventors: Ziyang Zhong, Barbara Cordell, Diana Quon, Yu-Wang Liu, Qiang Xu, Frauke Schimmoller, Paul Hyslop, Edward Johnstone, Sheila Little, Stephen Queener, Tinggui Yin
