Abstract

Proteolytic processing of the transmembrane domain of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a key component of Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis. Using C-terminally tagged APP derivatives, we have identified by amino-terminal sequencing a novel cleavage site of APP, at Leu-49, distal to the gamma-secretase site. This was termed -cleavage. Brefeldin A treatment and pulse-chase experiments indicate that this cleavage occurs late in the secretory pathway. The level of -cleavage is decreased by expression of presenilin-1 mutants known to impair Abeta formation, and it is sensitive to the gamma-secretase inhibitors MDL28170 and L-685,458. Remarkably, it shares similarities with site 3 cleavage of Notch-1: membrane topology, cleavage before a valine, dependence on presenilins, and inhibition profile.

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.
