Effects of transmembrane phenylalanine residues on γ-secretase-mediated Notch-1 proteolysis
2024-12-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> γ-Secretase is a presenilin-containing intramembrane aspartyl protease complex that cleaves within the transmembrane domain (TMD) of nearly 150 substrates, with the amyloid precursor protein (APP) being the most well studied. APP cleavage by γ-secretase generates amyloid β-peptides (Aβ) that pathologically deposit in Alzheimer’s disease. APP TMD substrate undergoes initial endoproteolysis (ε-cle...
