Description
A novel expression system has been developed that selectively expresses ABeta40 or ABeta42 in the secretory pathway. This system enables expression of high levels of specific ABeta peptides. Such a system has been used to develop animal models that critically determine the pathogenicity of individual ABeta peptides. In addition, the system may have general utility as a means of expressing high-level of small peptides in the secretory pathway of many organisms.
