Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of age-related dementia. At least 15 mutations in the human gene PRESENILIN 2 ( PSEN2 ) have been found to cause familial Alzheimer’s disease (fAD). Zebrafish possess an orthologous gene, psen2 , and present opportunities for investigation of PRESENILIN function related to Alzheimer’s disease. The most prevalent and best characterized fAD mutation in PSEN2 is N141I...
