Description
APP770 fragment (649–671) is a 23-amino-acid peptide fragment corresponding to residues 649–671 of human amyloid precursor protein isoform APP770. Numbering follows the 770-residue reference sequence in UniProt P05067, allowing this fragment to be aligned directly with other APP-derived materials. Sequence reference: UniProt P05067.
Research context
This sequence lies immediately upstream of the Aβ region, which begins at APP770 residue 672. The 649–671 boundaries define an extracellular, cleavage-site-adjacent APP segment for sequence mapping and comparisons with neighboring fragments. Its sequence retains the amino-acid order of that specific region of the parent protein.
APP is a membrane protein whose proteolytic processing produces multiple extracellular and C-terminal fragments, including amyloid-beta peptides. APP research examines how local sequence, cleavage boundaries, and interactions within the C-terminal tail relate to protein processing and signaling. Individual fragments provide defined sequences for studying selected parts of this broader molecular system. Research reference.
