Although the Alzheimer amyloid protein precursor (APP) has been studied
intensely for more than a decade, its function in neurons is unresolved. Much
less is known about its binding partner FE65. We have shown recently that APP
and FE65 synergistically regulate the movement of transfected cells. It
remained to be shown whether endogenous APP and FE65 could play a similar role
in vivo. Here, we show that FE65, like APP, is expressed at high
levels in neurons. Using a combination of immunofluorescence, live imaging,
and subcellular fractionation, we find that FE65 and APP localize in
vitro and in vivo to the most motile regions of neurons, the
growth cones. Within growth cones, APP and FE65 concentrate in actin-rich
lamellipodia. Finally, APP and FE65 interact in nerve terminals, where they
associate with Rab5-containing synaptic organelles but not with synaptic
vesicles. Our data are consistent with a role for the APP/FE65 complex in
regulation of actin-based membrane motility in neurons, which could be
important for highly dynamic processes such as neurite growth and synapse
modification.
