Abstract excerpt
The presenilins (PSs) were identified as causative genes in cases of early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease (AD) and current evidence indicates that PSs are part of the gamma-secretase complex responsible for proteolytic processing of type I membrane proteins. p75NTR, a common neurotrophin receptor, was shown to be subject to gamma-secretase processing. However, it is not clear if the p75NTR downstream signal...
