Cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by BACE-1 (β-site APP cleaving enzyme 1) is the rate-limiting step in amyloid-β (Aβ) production and a neuropathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Despite decades of research, mechanisms of amyloidogenic APP processing remain highly controversial. Here, we show that in neurons, APP processing and Aβ production are controlled by the protein complex-2 (AP-2), an endocytic adaptor known to be required for APP endocytosis. Now, we find that AP-2 prevents amyloidogenesis by ad
