UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot : ⁷⁵ Alzheimer disease mitochondrial: Alzheimer disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive dementia, loss of cognitive abilities, and deposition of fibrillar amyloid proteins as intraneuronal neurofibrillary tangles, extracellular amyloid plaques and vascular amyloid deposits. The major constituents of these plaques are neurotoxic amyloid-beta protein 40 and amyloid-beta protein 42, that are produced by the proteolysis of the transmembrane APP protein. The cytotoxic C-terminal fragments (CTFs) and the caspase-cleaved products, such as C31, are also implicated in neuronal death.

MalaCards based summary : Alzheimer Disease Mitochondrial, also known as alzheimer disease, susceptibility to, mitochondrial, is related to alzheimer disease and leber optic atrophy. An important gene associated with Alzheimer Disease Mitochondrial is MT-ND1 (Mitochondrially Encoded NADH:Ubiquinone Oxidoreductase Core Subunit 1), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Respiratory electron transport, ATP synthesis by chemiosmotic coupling, and heat production by uncoupling proteins. and Neuroscience. Affiliated tissues include brain, and related phenotypes are dementia and parkinsonism
