Abstract excerpt
Amyloid beta-protein is derived from the amyloid beta-protein precursor (APP), and it is a major component of brain amyloid depositions in Alzheimer's disease and Down's syndrome. Overexpression of APP may be one of several factors contributing to amyloid formation. The APP promoter was therefore analyzed to determine the mechanism by which APP gene expression is regulated. Cell type-specific expression from the...
