Cathepsin G: Localization in human cerebral cortex and generation of amyloidogenic fragments from the β-amyloid precursor protein
Abstract
Amyloid deposits in Alzheimer's disease, Down's syndrome and aged brain are composed largely of A beta protein, which is generated by proteolytic processing of beta-amyloid precursor protein. Proteases responsible for liberating the A beta protein from the precursor have not yet been identified. Here, we examined the ability of cathepsin G, a chymotrypsin-like protease, to cleave two protease substrates: (i) a fluorogenic hexapeptide, whose sequence spans the cleavage site in the precursor for generating the A beta NH2-terminus, and (ii) recombinant human beta-amyloid precursor protein purified from a baculovirus expression system. Unlike two other members of the chymotrypsin family, cathepsin G readily degraded the hexapeptide. Furthermore, cathepsin G cleaved the beta-amyloid precursor protein to generate several breakdown products, including a prominent 11,500 mol. wt fragment immunoreactive with antibodies directed against the COOH-terminus of the protein. This COOH-terminal fragment co-migrated using two-dimensional isoelectric focusing/sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with C-100, a recombinant COOH-terminal segment of the beta-amyloid precursor, whose NH2-terminus is one residue upstream of the NH2-terminus of the A beta domain. We also examined the localization of cathepsin G in human brain. The distribution of cathepsin G-containing cells was examined by immunohistochemistry in the temporal cortex of both Alzheimer's and aged control samples.…

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
