Sequential processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by membrane-bound proteases, BACE1 and gamma-secretase, plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease. Much has been discovered on the properties of these proteases; however, regulatory mechanisms of enzyme-substrate interaction in neurons and their involvement in pathological changes are still not fully understood. It is mainly because of the membrane-associated cleavage of these proteases and the lack of information on new substrates processed in a similar way to APP. Here, using RNA interference-mediated BACE1 knockdown, mouse embryonic fibroblasts that are deficient in either BACE1 or presenilins, and BACE1-deficient mouse brain, we show clear evidence that beta subunits of voltage-gated sodium channels are sequentially processed by BACE1 and gamma-secretase. These results may provide new insights into the underlying pathology of Alzheimer disease.
