DescriptionDescriptionSpecificity Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody specific to CLAC-P Background Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by deposition of beta-amyloid as senile plaques and cerebral amyloid angiopathy. The principal component of AD amyloid is the amyloid beta peptide (Abeta). Although production and deposition of Abeta appear closely related to the pathogenesis of AD, current evidence suggest that Abeta alone is not sufficient to cause neuronal death and symptoms of dementia. A component of senile plaque (SP), CLAC (collagen-like Alzheimer amyloid plaque component ) and its precursor CLAC-P are deposited with extracellular beta-amyloid and have been recently implicated in cell toxicity of beta- amyloid in AD brains. CLAC-P is a unique, membrane-bound collagen-like structure containing three Gly-X-Y repeat motifs and may define a novel class of neuronal collagens. Function Inhibits fibrillization of amyloid-beta peptide during the elongation phase. Has also been shown to assemble amyloid fibrils into protease-resistant aggregates.
