Processing of the synaptic cell adhesion molecule neurexin-3beta by Alzheimer disease alpha- and gamma-secretases

Nathalie Bot, Patrick Fraering, Claude André Schweizer

Neurexins (NRXNs) are synaptic cell adhesion molecules having essential roles in the assembly and maturation of synapses into fully functional units. Immunocytochemical and electrophysiological studies have shown that specific binding across the synaptic c ...

Novel gamma-secretase inhibitors uncover a common nucleotide-binding site in JAK3, SIRT2, and PS1

Patrick Fraering, Claude André Schweizer

Gamma-secretase is an intramembrane-cleaving protease responsible for the final proteolytic event in the production of the amyloid-beta peptides (Abeta) implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Inhibition of gamma-secretase activity is thus an attractive th ...

Ferritin H gene deletion in the choroid plexus and forebrain results in hydrocephalus

Patrick Fraering, Claude André Schweizer

Ferritin H, the major iron storage protein, has essential functions in early embryonic development as well as in adult liver and intestine. To address the question whether ferritin H has similarly essential functions in the brain we used the Cre/loxP syste ...

Generation of monoclonal antibody fragments binding the native γ-secretase complex for use in structural studies

Patrick Fraering, Mitko Dimitrov, Lorène Aeschbach, Claude André Schweizer

A detailed understanding of γ-secretase structure is crucially needed to elucidate its unique properties of intramembrane protein cleavage and to design therapeutic compounds for the safe treatment of Alzheimer's disease. γ-Secretase is an enzyme complex c ...
