Abstract excerpt
X11 proteins have been shown to modulate metabolism of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) and to reduce the secretion of beta-amyloid peptides (Abeta) that are associated with Alzheimer's disease. Whereas X11alpha interacts with APP via its phosphotyrosine-binding domain, recent reports indicate that additional regulatory interactions involve the N terminus of X11. Here we report that the syntaxin-1a-binding...
