Target Background

Function(From Uniprot)
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 (amyloid-beta precursor protein). The gamma-secretase complex plays a role in Notch and Wnt signaling cascades and regulation of downstream processes via its role in processing key regulatory proteins, and by regulating cytosolic CTNNB1 levels (Probable). PSENEN modulates both endoproteolysis of presenilin and gamma-secretase activity.
Gene References into Functions
  1. Using knockout cell lines in combination with siRNA and immunoprecipitation approaches, our data clearly demonstrated that the Pen-2 and PS1 are sufficient to form a functionally active gamma-secretase that is capable of catalyzing the processing of Notch. This finding strongly suggests that Pen-2 is the most crucial component in gamma-secretase complex in addition to presenilin that functions as the catalytic subunit. PMID:28234257
  2. Cleavage of the Interleukin-11 receptor induces processing of its C-terminal fragments by the gamma-secretase and the proteasome. PMID:28735867
  3. the G206D mutation reduced presenilin-1-presenilin enhancer 2 interaction, but did not abolish gamma-secretase formation and presenilin-1 endoproteolysis PMID:25394380
  4. Data show that the expression level of presenilin enhancer-2 (Pen-2) is relatively high in central nervous system at the early stages of postnatal development, but declines, gradually in adult mice. PMID:25736404
  5. rather than solely being a catalyst for gamma-secretase endoproteolysis, Pen-2 may also stabilize the complex prior to PS1 endoproteolysis, allowing time for full assembly and proper trafficking. PMID:24941111
