Abstract

Accumulation of extracellular amyloid beta peptide (Abeta), generated from amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing by beta- and gamma-secretases, is toxic to neurons and is central to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease. Production of Abeta from APP is greatly affected by the subcellular localization and trafficking of APP. Here we have identified a novel intracellular adaptor protein, sorting nexin 17 (SNX17), that binds specifically to the APP cytoplasmic domain via the YXNPXY motif that has been shown previously to bind several cell surface adaptors, including Fe65 and X11. Overexpression of a dominant-negative mutant of SNX17 and RNA interference knockdown of endogenous SNX17 expression both reduced steady-state levels of APP with a concomitant increase in Abeta production. RNA interference knockdown of SNX17 also decreased APP half-life, which led to the decreased steady-state levels of APP. Immunofluorescence staining confirmed a colocalization of SNX17 and APP in the early endosomes. We also showed that a cell surface adaptor protein, Dab2, binds to the same YXNPXY motif and regulates APP endocytosis at the cell surface. Our results thus provide strong evidence that both cell surface and intracellular adaptor proteins regulate APP endocytic trafficking and processing to Abeta. The identification of SNX17 as a novel APP intracellular adaptor protein highly expressed in neurons should facilitate the understanding of the relationship between APP intracellular traffic…

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • By using pooled CRISPR-Cas9 targeted screening, we discovered genes for which variants cause autosomal dominant forms of neurodegeneration (SLC33A1, SNX17, GRN, VPS35, CLN3, NPC2) as genetic modulators of lipid droplet formation in microglia.

  • SNX17, specifically through its FERM domain, recognizes an NPxY motif in the cytoplasmic domains of LRP1, APP and β1 integrins.

    “SNX17, specifically through its FERM domain, recognizes an NPxY motif in the cytoplasmic domains of LRP1, APP and β1 integrins [31], [32], [34], [35].”
  • SNX17 regulates the cell surface levels and half-life of APP.

    “regulates the cell surface levels and half-life of APP [32]”
  • The interaction of APP with SNX17 regulates its processing.

    “Additionally it has been shown that the interaction of APP with SNX17 regulates its processing [32].”
  • SNX17 silencing decreases the surface levels of APP, which is associated with deficient recycling.

    “It has also been shown that SNX17 silencing decreases the surface levels of APP, which is associated with deficient recycling [32].”

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.
