    摘要: Compositions comprising a novel protease capable of cleaving &bgr;-amyloid precursor protein on the amino-terminal side of the &bgr;-amyloid peptide therein are provided. The protease is designated &bgr;-secretase. The &bgr;-secretase may be used in screening assays to identify &bgr;-secretase inhibitors, or the &bgr;-secretase is combined with a suitable polypeptide substrate and cleavage of the substrate determined in the presence and absence of the test substance.
