The main component of the amyloid plaques found in the brains of those with Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a polymerized form of the b-amyloid peptide (Ab) and is considered to play a central role in the pathogenesis of this neurodegenerative disorder.

BACE1 cleaves the amyloid precursor protein (APP) at the b-cleavage site (Met 671 -Asp 672 ) to initiate the generation of amyloid peptide Ab. BACE1 is also known to cleave APP at a much less well-characterized b 0 -cleavage site (Tyr 681 -Glu 682 ). We describe here the identification of a novel AP
