Background Information: β-Secretase, also called BACE1 (β-site of APP cleaving enzyme) or memapsin-2 is an aspartic-acid protease important in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease, and in the formation of myelin sheaths in peripheral nerve cells. The transmembrane protein, contains two active site aspartate residues in its extracellular protein domain and may function as a dimer.
