Paradoxical effects of mutant ubiquitin on Aβ plaque formation in an Alzheimer mouse model.

Neurobiol Aging

They consist of aggregated Aβ peptides, which are generated through sequential proteolytic processing of the transmembrane protein amyloid precursor protein (APP) and several Aβ-associated factors. Efficient clearance of Aβ from the brain is thought to be important to prevent the development and progression of AD.
