Description
BACE2 cleaves within the beta-amyloid monomer and so has been targeted as a potentially hopeful therapeutic in degrading the beta-amyloid plaques of Alzheimer's Disease. So one of our approaches in the Alzheimer's Treatment module is to up-regulate BACE2 expression. This vector contains BACE2 under regulation of the TRE promoter, allowing inducible BACE2 expression.
Notes
No particular considerations were taken into account.
Source
BACE2 was purchased commercially and then assembled with the promoter part pENTR TRE by Gateway.
