| Popis: | The yeast two-hybrid system, immunofluorescence and co-immunoprecipitation techniques were used to identify a novel candidate protein with which presenilin-1 (PS-1) interacts. This interacting protein, the gene of which is encoded on chromosome 16, contains two tetratricopeptide repeats (TPR) that are known to mediate interactions between proteins, appears to be primarily localized to the cytoplasm of transfected HEK293 cells, and is expressed in brain. Preliminary yeast two-hybrid data suggests this candidate may interact with both heat shock protein-90 and heat shock protein-70 and thus may be a novel member of TPR-containing proteins which interact with this complex. |
