Interfering with Apoptosis: Ca 2+ -Binding Protein ALG-2 and Alzheimer's Disease Gene ALG-3

Abstract

Two apoptosis-linked genes, named ALG-2 and ALG-3 , were identified by means of a functional selection strategy. ALG-2 codes for a Ca 2+ -binding protein required for T cell receptor-, Fas-, and glucocorticoid-induced cell death. ALG-3 , a partial complementary DNA that is homologous to the familial Alzheimer's disease gene STM2 , rescues a T cell hybridoma from T cell receptor- and Fas-induced apoptosis. These findings suggest that ALG-2 may mediate Ca 2+ -regulated signals along the death pathway and that cell death may play a role in Alzheimer's disease.
