Abstract
Previously, we reported that mutations in presenilin 1 (PS1) increased the intracellular levels of amyloid beta-protein (Abeta)42. However, it is still not known at which cellular site or how PS1 mutations exert their effect of enhancing Abeta42-gamma-secretase cleavage. In this study, to clarify the molecular mechanisms underlying this enhancement of Abeta42-gamma-secretase cleavage, we focused on determining the intracellular site of the cleavage. To address this issue, we used APP-C100 encoding the C-terminal beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP) fragment truncated at the N terminus of Abeta (C100); C100 requires only gamma-secretase cleavage to yield Abeta. Mutated PS1 (M146L)-induced Neuro 2a cells showed enhanced Abeta1-42 generation from transiently expressed C100 as well as from full-length APP, whereas the generation of Abeta1-40 was not increased. The intracellular generation of Abeta1-42 from transiently expressed C100 in both mutated PS1-induced and wild-type Neuro 2a cells was inhibited by brefeldin A. Moreover, the generation of Abeta1-42 and Abeta1-40 from a C100 mutant containing a di-lysine endoplasmic reticulum retention signal was greatly decreased, indicating that the major intracellular site of gamma-secretase cleavage is not the endoplasmic reticulum. The intracellular generation of Abeta1-42/40 from C100 was not influenced by monensin treatment, and the level of Abeta1-42/40 generated from C100 carrying a sorting signal for the trans-Golgi network was higher than that generated from wild-type C100. These results using PS1-mutation-harbouring and wild-type Neuro 2a cells suggest that Abeta42/40-gamma-secretase cleavages occur in the Golgi compartment and the trans-Golgi network, and that the PS1 mutation does not alter the intracelluar site of Abeta42-gamma-secretase cleavage in the normal APP proteolytic processing pathway.
