Regulation of gene expression by the APP family in the adult cerebral cortex
7 Jan 2022
Abstract excerpt
Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is associated with both familial and sporadic forms of Alzheimer's disease. APP has two homologs, amyloid precursor-like protein 1 and 2 (APLP1 and APLP2), and they have functional redundancy. APP intracellular c-terminal domain (AICD), produced by sequential α- or β- and γ-secretase cleavages, is thought to control gene expression, similarly as the ICD of Notch. To investigate the...
