Presenilin, Notch, and the genesis and treatment of Alzheimer's disease

Elucidation of the proteolytic processing of the amyloid β-protein precursor (APP) has revealed that one of the two proteases (γ-secretase) that cleave APP to release amyloid β-protein (Aβ) is likely to be presenilin. Presenilin also mediates the γ-secretase-like cleavage of Notch receptors to enabl...
