Open AccessThe precision of axon targeting of mouse olfactory sensory neurons requires the BACE1 protease
The β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) is necessary to generate the Aβ peptide, which is implicated in Alzheimer's disease pathology. Studies show that the expression of BACE1 and its p...
