摘要

Neuronal Fe65 is a central adapter for the intracellular protein network of Alzheimer's disease related amyloid precursor protein (APP). It contains a unique tandem array of phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domains that recognize NPXY internalization motifs present in the intracellular domains of APP (AICD) and the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein LRP1 (LICD). The ternary APP/Fe65/LRP1 complex is an important mediator of APP processing and affects beta-amyloid peptide production. Here we dissect by biochemical and biophysical methods the direct interactions within the ternary complex and reveal a phosphorylation-dependent insulin receptor substrate (IRS-) like interaction of the distal NPVY(4507) motif of LICD with Fe65-PTB1.
