The sequential processing of the familial disease gene product amyloid beta precursor protein (AbetaPP) by beta- and gamma-secretases generates amyloid beta, which is considered to be the pathogenic factor of Alzheimer's disease, and the AID peptide (AbetaPP intracellular domain). The AID peptide acts as a positive regulator of apoptosis and modulates transcription and calcium release. To gain clues about the molecular mechanisms regulating the function of AbetaPP and AID, proteins interacting with the AID region of AbetaPP have been isolated using the yeast two-hybrid system. Recent evidence indicates that AbetaPP undergoes post-translational modification events in the AID region and that phosphorylation might regulate its affinity for interacting proteins. To test this possibility and to uncover AbetaPP-binding partners whose interaction depends on AbetaPP phosphorylation, we used a proteomic approach. Here we describe a protein, growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2), that specifically binds AbetaPP, phosphorylated in Tyr(682). Furthermore, we show that this interaction is direct and that Grb2 binds to phospho-AbetaPP via its Src homology 2 region. Together with the evidence that Grb2 is in complex with AbetaPP in human brains and that these complexes are augmented in brains from Alzheimer's cases, our data indicate that Grb2 may mediate some biological and possibly pathological AbetaPP-AID function.
