General annotation (Comments)

Function

Responsible for the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Cleaves at the N-terminus of the A-beta peptide sequence, between residues 671 and 672 of APP, leads to the generation and extracellular release of beta-cleaved soluble APP, and a corresponding cell-associated C-terminal fragment which is later released by gamma-secretase By similarity.

Catalytic activity

Broad endopeptidase specificity. Cleaves Glu-Val-Asn-Leu-|-Asp-Ala-Glu-Phe in the Swedish variant of Alzheimer amyloid precursor protein.

Enzyme regulation

Inhibited by RTN3 and RTN4 By similarity.

Subunit structure

Monomer. Interacts with GGA1, GGA2 and GGA3. Interacts with RTN3 and RTN4. Interacts with SNX6 By similarity. Interacts with PCSK9 By similarity.

Subcellular location

Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Golgi apparatustrans-Golgi network By similarity. Endoplasmic reticulum By similarity. Endosome By similarity. Cell surface By similarity. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane By similarity. Note: Predominantly localized to the later Golgi/trans-Golgi network (TGN) and minimally detectable in the early Golgi compartments. A small portion is also found in the endoplasmic reticulum, endosomes and on the cell surface By similarity.

Domain

The transmembrane domain is necessary for its activity. It determines its late Golgi localization and access to its substrate, APP By similarity.

Post-translational modification

Glycosylated By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase A1 family.
