Biotin Beta-Amyloid (1-42), Recombinant

Product background: Beta-Amyloid peptides (A-beta), the major constituent of amyloid plaques in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients, is thought to be a primary contributor to Alzheimer’s Disease (AD).

About the product: Expressed recombinantly in E. coli, the human sequence of Beta-Amyloid (1-42) has an Avi-tag added to the C-terminus for in vivo biotinylation. Biotin Beta-Amyloid (1-42) is purified to our highest standards to ensure batch-to-batch consistency in both purity and quality.

Applications: The Biotin Beta-Amyloid (1-42) is sold in the NH4OH counter-ion to ensure a highly monomeric starting material that may be suited to aggregation studies, seeding experiments, molecular standards, and more.
