Binding of longer Aβ to transmembrane domain 1 of presenilin 1 impacts on Aβ42 generation

BACKGROUND: Amyloid-β peptide ending at 42nd residue (Aβ42) is believed as a pathogenic peptide for Alzheimer disease. Although γ-secretase is a responsible protease to generate Aβ through a processive cleavage, the proteolytic mechanism of γ-secretase at molecular level is poorly understood. RESULT...
