| 摘要 |
The present invention is directed to engineered polypeptides having BACE activity. In certain embodiments, the polypeptides also comprise an engineered cleavage site. Also provided are polypeptides comprising a prodomain, an engineered cleavage site, and a protease domain; the polypeptides are properly folded and are cleaved at the engineered cleavage site in vitro, producing homogeneous preparations of purified protease having BACE activity. The invention further pertains to nucleic acids, expression vectors, and host cells comprising the expression vectors for making the engineered polypeptides.
