Dual roles of the transmembrane protein p23/TMP21 in the modulation of amyloid precursor protein metabolism

BACKGROUND: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by cerebral deposition of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides. Aβ is released from ectodomain cleaved amyloid precursor protein (APP) via intramembranous proteolysis by γ-secretase, a complex consisting of presenilin and a few other proteins. p23/TMP21,...
