The Presenilin proteins are essential facilitators of numerous developmental and cell signaling pathways. Point mutations in the human PRESENILIN genes (including mutations affecting splicing) have been linked to familial Alzheimer's disease. Zebrafish possess orthologues of the human PRESENILIN1 and PRESENILIN2 genes. We previously investigated forced aberrant splicing of zebrafish presenilin1 and...
DNA from the probands of seven Australian families with hereditary Alzheimer's disease was screened for the presence of known mutations in the amyloid precursor protein (APP) gene on chromosome 21 using single stranded conformational polymorphism (SSCP) analysis [14]. One subject was found to have a mutation causing a Val → Ile substitution at position 717. This was confirmed by restriction enzyme...
