Crystal Structure of human beta-secretase (BACE) in the presence of an inhibitor
Structural highlights
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] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedWe describe a novel series of potent inhibitors of human beta-secretase. These compounds possess the hydroxyethyl amine transition state isostere. A 2.5A crystal structure of inhibitor 32 bound to BACE is provided. Design of potent inhibitors of human beta-secretase.
