The amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a large membrane protein whose C-terminus projects into the extracellular space.
In Alzheimer's disease (AD), the APP is proteolytically cleaved at the N-terminal of Ab by b-secretase (BACE) to release a ~100kD APPsb protein into the extracellular space.
The remaining 12 kDa fragment remains membrane bound where it can be cleaved at its C-terminus by g-secretase (presenilins) to release the insoluble Ab peptide into the extracellular space with the ~8kD APP C-terminal fragment (CTFb) remaining membrane bound.
The APP is the subject of intensive investigations to determine how this protein is broken down abnormally in AD brains to give rise to Ab, which is present in senile plaques and vessels
