General annotation (Comments)

Function

Probable catalytic subunit of the gamma-secretase complex, an endoprotease complex that catalyzes the intramembrane cleavage of integral membrane proteins such as Notch receptors and APP (beta-amyloid precursor protein). Requires the other members of the gamma-secretase complex to have a protease activity. May play a role in intracellular signaling and gene expression or in linking chromatin to the nuclear membrane. May function in the cytoplasmic partitioning of proteins. Ref.13 Ref.14

Subunit structure

Interacts with DOCK3 By similarity. Homodimer. Component of the gamma-secretase complex, a complex composed of a presenilin homodimer (PSEN1 or PSEN2), nicastrin (NCSTN), APH1 (APH1A or APH1B) and PEN2. Such minimal complex is sufficient for secretase activity, although other components may exist. Interacts with HERPUD1, FLNA, FLNB and PARL. Ref.12 Ref.15

Subcellular location

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Ref.11.

Tissue specificity

Isoform 1 is seen in the placenta, skeletal muscle and heart while isoform 2 is seen in the heart, brain, placenta, liver, skeletal muscle and kidney. Ref.11

Domain

The PAL motif is required for normal active site conformation By similarity.

Post-translational modification

Heterogeneous proteolytic processing generates N-terminal and C-terminal fragments.

Phosphorylated on serine residues.

Involvement in disease

Alzheimer disease 4 (AD4) [MIM:606889]: A familial early-onset form of Alzheimer disease. 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 constituent of these plaques is the neurotoxic amyloid-beta-APP 40-42 peptide (s), derived proteolytically from the transmembrane precursor protein APP by sequential secretase processing. The cytotoxic C-terminal fragments (CTFs) and the caspase-cleaved products such as C31 derived from APP, are also implicated in neuronal death.
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.1 Ref.2 Ref.20 Ref.21 Ref.22

Cardiomyopathy, dilated 1V (CMD1V) [MIM:613697]: A disorder characterized by ventricular dilation and impaired systolic function, resulting in congestive heart failure and arrhythmia. Patients are at risk of premature death.
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.23

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase A22A family.
