General annotation (Comments)

Function

Essential 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). Probably represents the last step of maturation of gamma-secretase, facilitating endoproteolysis of presenilin and conferring gamma-secretase activity. Ref.6 Ref.8

Subunit structure

Component of the gamma-secretase complex, a complex composed of a presenilin homodimer (PSEN1 or PSEN2), nicastrin (NCSTN), APH1 (APH1A or APH1B) and PSENEN/PEN2. Such minimal complex is sufficient for secretase activity, although other components may exist.

Subcellular location

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatusGolgi stack membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note: Predominantly located in the endoplasmic reticulum and in the cis-Golgi. Ref.6 Ref.7

Tissue specificity

Widely expressed. Expressed in leukocytes, lung, placenta, small intestine, liver, kidney, spleen thymus, skeletal muscle, heart and brain. Ref.5 Ref.9

Involvement in disease

Familial acne inversa 2 (ACNINV2) [MIM:613736]: A chronic relapsing inflammatory disease of the hair follicles characterized by recurrent draining sinuses, painful skin abscesses, and disfiguring scars. Manifestations typically appear after puberty.
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.11

Belongs to the PEN-2 family.
