    摘要: The invention relates to materials and methods of identifying modulators of N-methyl-D-Aspartate (NMDA) receptor phosphorylation and function, including anti-schizophrenic agents that modulate NMDA receptor function. The methods of the invention utilize animal models of schizophrenia and cell-based assays to identify modulators of NMDA function. The invention further provides anti-schizophrenic agents identified by these methods. The invention relates to methods of treating schizophrenia using the modulators and anti-schizophrenic agents identified by the methods of the invention.

    摘要: The present invention provides the enzyme and enzymatic procedures for cleaving the β secretase cleavage site of the APP protein and associated nucleic acids, peptides, vectors, cells and cell isolates and assays. An enzyme that cleaves the α-secretase site of APP also is provided. The invention further provides a modified APP protein and associated nucleic acids, peptides, vectors, cells, and cell isolates, and assays that are particularly useful for identifying candidate therapeutics for treatment or prevention of Alzheimer's disease.
