APP: Chromosomal Location
APP Genetic locus on Chr. 21q21.3
APP is a single copy gene. It exists as one copy per haploid genome.
SWAN Proteins Wong & Wu
APP is a gene that encodes a
complexity of proteins
• A single locus: single copy per haploid genome
• Multiple splice variant mRNAs
• Multiple protein isoforms expressed
– Some isoforms are ubiquitous, others neuron specific or T
cell-specific
• Variety of conserved functional domains throughout length of
protein
– Isoform differences in major domains
• APP interacts with multiple proteins
• Mutations throughout protein associated with familial Alzheimer
Disease
• Cleavage products generated by α-, β- and γ-secretase are
involved in both normal and pathogenic protein processing.
SWAN Proteins Wong & Wu
APP Gene encodes 10 Isoforms produced by
Alternative Splice Variants
There are three major isoforms:
There are seven and probably more additional isoforms.

Source: MAPT Mapviewer (NCBI)
WT: MAPT is a single copy gene. It exists as one copy per haploid genome.
Disease: MAPT gene mutations have been associated with several neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease,
Pick's disease, frontotemporal dementia, cortico-basal degeneration and progressive supranuclear palsy.

Tau is a gene that encodes a
complexity of proteins
• A single locus: single copy per haploid genome
• Multiple splice variant mRNAs
• Mulitiple protein isoforms expressed
– tau is not only present in neurons but is also clearly present in
oligodendroglia and astrocytes
• Variety of conserved functional domains throughout
length of protein
– Isoform differences in major domains
• Tau interacts with multiple proteins
• ~40 FTDP-associated mutations
