Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the presenilin (PS) genes are linked to the development of early-onset Alzheimer's disease by a gain-of-function mechanism that alters proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Recent work indicates that Alzheimer's-disease-linked mutations in presenilin1 and presenilin2 attenuate calcium entry and augment calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in different cell...
