IUBMB Comments
Can cleave β-amyloid precursor protein to form the amyloidogenic β-peptide that is implicated in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease, but is not significantly expressed in human brain. In peptidase family A1, but is atypical in containing a C-terminal membrane-spanning domain.
The enzyme appears in viruses and cellular organisms

in normal human pancreas, BACE2 expression is restricted to beta-cells. BACE2 colocalizes with clathrin-coated vesicles of the plasma membrane in MIN6 cells. Pharmacological inhibition of BACE2 results in increased BACE2 content in clathrin-coated vesicles, reduced insulin internalization rate, decreased in insulin receptor beta-subunit at the plasma membrane and increase in the Golgi apparatus, and a significant reduction in insulin gene expression. Similar results are obtained after specific BACE2 silencing in MIN6 cells. Data point to a role for BACE2 in the insulin receptor-beta subunit trafficking and insulin signaling

metabolism
enzyme-mediated beta-cleavage of amyloid precursor protein is a mechanism underlying Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis
physiological function
-
BACE2 colocalizes with clathrin-coated vesicles of the plasma membrane in MIN6 cells. Pharmacological inhibition of BACE2 results in increased BACE2 content in clathrin-coated vesicles, reduced insulin internalization rate, decreased in insulin receptor beta-subunit at the plasma membrane and increase in the Golgi apparatus, and a significant reduction in insulin gene expression. Similar results are obtained after specific BACE2 silencing in MIN6 cells. Data point to a role for BACE2 in the insulin receptor-beta subunit trafficking and insulin signaling
physiological function
-
in a mouse model of in vivo BACE2 overexpression, BACE2 is not involved in the amyloidogenic pathway, cognitive dysfunction or cholinergic degeneration. Transgenic BACE2 animals show increased anxiety-like behaviour along with increased numbers of noradrenergic neurones in locus coeruleus
physiological function
-
mice with functionally inactive Bace2 and insulin-resistant mice treated with a Bace2 inhibitor both display augmented beta cell mass and improved control of glucose homeostasis due to increased insulin levels
physiological function
X4Z0F5
mutations in Bace2 reveal a distinct melanocyte migration phenotype, which is not observed in homozygous Bace1 mutants. Double homozygous Bace1/Bace2 fish do not enhance the single mutant phenotypes indicating non-redundant distinct physiological functions. Single homozygous bace1 mutants as well as double homozygous bace1 and bace2 mutants are viable and fertile
physiological function
BACE2 is highly expressed in pigment cells and homozygous Bace2 mutant mice display coat color defects, implying a specific role for BACE2 during melanogenesis
physiological function
inactivation of BACE2, but not BACE1, inhibits shedding of VEGFR3 from primary human lymphatic endothelial cells and reduces release of the shed, soluble VEGFR3 ectodomain into the blood. BACE2 inactivation increases full-length VEGFR3 and enhances VEGFR3 signaling
physiological function
inactivation of BACE2, but not BACE1, inhibits shedding of VEGFR3 from primary human lymphatic endothelial cells and reduces release of the shed, soluble VEGFR3 ectodomain into the blood. BACE2 inactivation increases full-length VEGFR3 and enhances VEGFR3 signaling
physiological function
genetic downregulation of BACE2 in brain microvascular endothelial cells significantly decreases expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase eNOS and elevates levels of eNOS phosphorylated at threonine residue Thr495. BACE2 siRNA also suppresses expression of APP and decreased production and release of soluble APPalpha. gamma-Aminobutyric acid type B receptor subunit 1 and Krueppel-like factor 2 may function as downstream molecular targets significantly contributing to BACE2/APP/sAPP-induced up-regulation of eNOS

evolutionary trace analysis identifies group-specific residues in the ligand binding sites of BACE1, EC 3.4.23.46, and BACE2.The residues are Pro70, Ile110, Ile126, andAsn233 of BACE1 substituting Lys86, Leu126, Leu142, and Leu246 of BACE2, respectively.These group-specific residues would be the reason for cleavage site selectivity in BACE1 and BACE2 biological function

COMMENTARY
LITERATURE
drug development
-
therapeutic interventions that potentiate BACE2 may prevent Alzheimers disease
medicine
pharmacology
the enzyme is a potential target for development of inhibitors in Alzheimer's disease therapy and treatment of Down syndrome
medicine
-
samples from frontal cortex of both Alzheimer's disease-affected individuals and age-matched controls show substantial total amounts of BACE2 protein and enzymatic activity. BACE2 activity does not change significantly in the brain of patients with Alzheimer's disease, and is not related to amyloid beta-peptide concentration
medicine
in patients with preclinical to late-stage Alzheimer's disease, including amnestic mild cognitive impairment, and age-matched controls, cases of frontotemporal dementia, and Down's syndrome, BACE2 protein and enzymatic activity increase as early as preclinical Alzheimer's disease and are found in neurons and astrocytes. Although the levels of total BACE2 mRNA are unchanged, the mRNA for BACE2 splice form C (missing exon 7) increases in parallel with BACE2 protein and activity. BACE1 and BACE2 are strongly correlated with each other at all levels. BACE2 is also elevated in frontotemporal dementia but not in Down's syndrome, even in patients with substantial amyloid beta deposition
