PSEN2
PSEN2 (Presenilin-2) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. Tied to Desmoid tumour. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Biology
Catalytic subunit of the gamma-secretase complex, an endoprotease complex that catalyses the intramembrane cleavage of integral membrane proteins such as Notch receptors and APP (amyloid-beta precursor protein). Selectively cleaves late endosomal/lysosomal localised substrates and generates the prominent pool of intracellular amyloid beta that contains longer amyloid beta. The holoprotein functions as a calcium-leak channel that allows the passive movement of calcium from endoplasmic reticulum to cytosol and is involved in calcium homeostasis. Is a regulator of mitochondrion-endoplasmic reticulum membrane tethering and modulates calcium ions shuttling between ER and mitochondria. Location: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Golgi apparatus membrane; Late endosome membrane; Lysosome membrane (UniProt). Locus 1q42.13 (HGNC).
