Abstract

β-amyloid protein (Aβ) formation was reconstituted in permeabilized neuroblastoma cells expressing human Alzheimer β-amyloid precursor protein (βAPP) harboring the Swedish double mutation associated with familial early-onset Alzheimer disease. Permeabilized cells were prepared following metabolic labeling and incubation at 20°C, a temperature that allows βAPP to accumulate in the trans-Golgi network (TGN) without concomitant Aβ formation. Subsequent incubation at 37°C led to the generation of Aβ. Aβ production in the TGN persisted even under conditions in which formation of nascent post-TGN vesicles was inhibited by addition of guanosine 5′- O -(3-thiotriphosphate), a nonhydrolyzable GTP analogue, or by omission of cytosol. These and other results indicate that vesicle budding and trafficking may not be required for proteolytic metabolism of βAPP to Aβ, a process that includes “γ-secretase” cleavage within the βAPP transmembrane domain.

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.
