## Abstract Proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein by Ξ² βand Ξ³βsecretases results in the production of Alzheimer's disease (AD) AΞ² amyloid peptides. Modulation of secretase activity is being investigated as a potential therapeutic approach. Recent studies with human brain have reve
We sequenced the entire coding region of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) genes of 11 unrelated patients with Japanese familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD) in order to determine the exact frequency of known APP gene mutations and to search for novel mutations responsible for FAD. Three out of 11 (2
