  1. Naive HEK293 cells or stable transfectants overexpressing wt, mutated, or ΔE9-PS1 were transiently transfected with wtβAPP751 cDNA. Thirty-six hours after transfection, cells were incubated for 16 hr in the absence (control) or presence of Z-IE(Ot-Bu)A-Leucinal (25 µM), then metabolically labeled for 6 hr in the presence of the inhibitor. Conditioned media were submitted to a subsequent two-step immunoprecipitation procedure with FCA3542 and FCA3340 antibodies (350-fold dilution). The ratios of Aβ42/Aβ total were estimated as in Figure 7. Values are the means ± S.E.M. of three to four independent experiments. Values in parentheses represent the Aβ42/Aβ total ratio expressed as the percent of that obtained with wtPS1-expressing cells (taken as 100).
