Electron microscopic structure of purified, active gamma-secretase reveals an aqueous intramembrane chamber and two pores.
Gamma-secretase is an intramembrane-cleaving aspartyl protease required for the normal development of metazoans because it processes Notch within cellular membranes to release its signaling domain. More than two dozen additional substrates of diverse functions have been reported, including the Notch ligands Delta and Jagged, N- and E-cadherins, and a sodium channel subunit. The protease is caus...

در ایران بیمه خودرو سهم بزرگی در صنعت بیمه دارد. تعیین حق بیمه مناسب و عادلانه نیازمند طبقه بندی خریداران بیمه نامه براساس خطرات احتمالی آنها است. عوامل ریسکی فراوانی می تواند بر این قیمت گذاری تاثیر بگذارد. طبقه بندی و تعیین میزان تاثیر گذاری هر عامل ریسکی بر قیمت گذاری بیمه خودرو پیچیدگی خاصی دارد. در این پایان نامه سعی در ارائه راهی جدید برای طبقه بندی عوامل ریسکی با استفاده از اصول و روش ها...
Internal states of active inclusions and the dynamics of an active membrane.
A theoretical model of a two-component fluid membrane containing lipids and two-state active inclusions is presented. This model predicts several nonequilibrium morphology transitions. (i) Active pumping of the inclusions can drive a long-wavelength undulation instability. (ii) Active excitation of the inclusions can induce aggregation of high-curvature excited inclusions. (iii) Active inclusio...
متن کاملSubstrate docking to γ-secretase allows access of γ-secretase modulators to an allosteric site
γ-Secretase generates the peptides of Alzheimer's disease, Aβ(40) and Aβ(42), by cleaving the amyloid precursor protein within its transmembrane domain. γ-Secretase also cleaves numerous other substrates, raising concerns about γ-secretase inhibitor off-target effects. Another important class of drugs, γ-secretase modulators, alter the cleavage site of γ-secretase on amyloid precursor protein, ...
