Abstract excerpt
The subcellular location of the secretases processing the beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP) is not established yet. We analyzed the generation of the beta-amyloid peptide (Abeta) in human embryonic kidney 293 cell lines stably expressing wild-type and noninternalizing mutants of human APP. APP lacking the entire cytoplasmic domain or with both tyrosine residues of the motif GYENPTY mutated to alanine showed at...
