I would like the page to have a table of contents and the following main sections: Background, Structure (with a jmol image area), Function, Clinical Relevance, and References.
I would like the page to have a table of contents and the following main sections: Background, Structure (with a jmol image area), Function, Clinical Relevance, and References. Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) is a major protein associated with Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and was first identified in 1987. AD is characterized as the most common form of dementia that worsens over time. APP is produced in big amounts and is metabolized very quickly. Risk for developing AD increases with age. APP is produced in big amounts and is metabolized very quickly. Alzheimer’s Disease is caused by accumulation of β-amyloid peptide (Aβ) within the brain.
