Abstract excerpt
Presenilin-dependent intramembranous proteolysis mediates the dual cleavage of the Notch-1 protein (S4 and S3) as well as the beta amyloid precursor protein (betaAPP) (gamma40 and epsilon-site). betaAPP has a valine residue just before the gamma40 (amyloid beta [Abeta] numbering) site and after the epsilon-site. Both gamma40 and epsilon have multiple cleavage sites, and the varieties of gamma40 cleavage are...
