pubmed:abstractText |
To investigate the mechanism of regulation of Ass production by familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD)-linked presenilin 1 (PS1), we used a cell-free system that allows de novo Ass generation to examine whether PS1 participates directly in the gamma-secretase reaction. Optimal Ass generation in vitro was achieved at mildly acidic pH and could be inhibited by the aspartyl protease inhibitor pepstatin A, consistent with the suggestion that gamma-secretase is an aspartyl protease. Dominant negative mutations of the critical transmembrane aspartates in PS1 or full deletion of PS1 did not alter the maturation of APP in the secretory pathway. Instead, PS1 had a direct effect on the inhibition of Ass production by a designed peptidomimetic inhibitor: the inhibition was significantly less effective in cells expressing FAD-causing mutations in either APP or PS1 than in cells expressing the wild-type proteins. Taken together, these findings suggest that PS1 participates physically in a complex with APP during the gamma-secretase cleavage event.
