Abstract
Studies the critical role of presenilins in the proteolysis of beta-amyloid precursor protein (beta-APP) to generate beta-amyloid, a peptide important in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Biogenesis of beta-APP-containing vesicles from the trans-Golgi network and the endoplasmic reticulum; Analysis of pertinent topics and relevant issues; Implications on membrane transport, structure, function and biogenesis.
