Gamma-secretase

Gamma-secretase

γ-Secretase is a multimeric aspartyl protease that cleaves the membrane-spanning region of the β-carboxyl terminal fragment (βCTF) generated from β-amyloid precursor protein.A crucial molecule in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), -Secretase defines the generated molecular species of amyloid protein (A).

Secretase is made up of four subunits: presenilin (PS), the catalytic subunit of the enzyme, nicastrin (Nct), pen-2, and apha-1. In order to activate -secretase, PS must undergo endoproteolysis, which produces PS1-NTF (N-terminal fragment) and CTF (C-terminal fragment) heterodimer. Amyloid precursor protein (APP), Notch, and numerous other substrates are broken down by -Secretase. The pathogenesis of AD is influenced by abnormal APP cleavage, and abnormal Notch signaling encourages tumor growth. Secretase is a highly sought-after drug target in cancer and Alzheimer's disease. Both inhibitors (GSIs) and modulators (GSMs), two different classes of small molecules that target -secretase, have been created.
