X11 alpha and X11 beta are two neuronal adaptor proteins that interact with the Alzheimer's disease amyloid precursor protein (APP). X11 alpha and X11 beta stabilise APP and inhibit production of proteolytic APP fragments including the AP peptide that is deposited in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients. The mechanisms by which X11 alpha and X11 beta modulate APP processing are not clear but one possibility is that they influence the activity of the secretases that cleave APP to give rise to A beta. Presenilin-1 is required for gamma -secretase activity and here we demonstrate that both X11 alpha and X11 beta interact with presenilin-1. X11/presenilin-1 binding is via two X11 PDZ domains and sequences within the carboxy-terminus of presenilin-1. We also demonstrate that both X11 alpha and X11 beta mediate the formation of complexes between APP and presenilin-1. These results suggest that the X11 regulation of APP processing is controlled, at least in part, via their interactions with APP and presenilin-1.
