Effects of modifications and trafficking of APP on its processing and Aβ generation. Post-translational modifications of APP occur along the constitutive secretory pathway, while the modifications also affect APP trafficking. Both APP modifications-induced conformation changes and trafficking-dependent co-residence with different secretases may alter the cleavage preference of each secretase, resulting in the alteration of APP processing and Aβ generation.
