Abstract excerpt
The Ras-related GTP-binding protein, Rab6, is localized in late Golgi compartments where it mediates intra-Golgi vesicular trafficking. Herein we report that coexpression of Alzheimer's beta-amyloid precursor protein (beta APP751) with a dominant-negative Rab6 mutant (Rab6N126I) in human embryonal kidney 293 cells causes an increase in secretion of the soluble amino-terminal exodomain (s-APP alpha) derived from...
