Abstract excerpt
The metabolism of amyloid beta-protein precursor (APP) is regulated by various cytoplasmic and/or membrane-associated proteins, some of which are involved in the regulation of intracellular membrane trafficking. We found that a protein containing Asp-His-His-Cys (DHHC) domain, alcadein and APP interacting DHHC protein (AID)/DHHC-12, strongly inhibited APP metabolism, including amyloid beta-protein (Abeta)...
