gamma-Secretase is an aspartic protease that hydrolyzes type I membrane proteins within the hydrophobic environment of the lipid bilayer. Using the CHAPSO-solubilized gamma-secretase assay system, we previously found that gamma-secretase activity was sensitive to the concentrations of detergent and phosphatidylcholine.

The enantiomeric resolution of 1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diamine and Tröger's base was investigated using the commercially available zwitterionic surfactants 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulphonate (CHAPS) and 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-2-hydroxy-1-propanesulphonate (CHAPSO). Resolution of the weakly basic chiral probes was achieved using varying concentrations of surfactant, above their critical micellar concentrations

Crystallization of membrane proteins remains a significant challenge. For proteins resistant to the traditional approach of directly crystallizing from detergents, lipidic phase crystallization can be a powerful tool. Bicelles are an excellent medium for crystallizing membrane proteins in a lipidic

Gamma-secretase performs the final processing step in the generation of amyloid-beta (Abeta) peptides, which are believed to be causative for Alzheimer's disease. Presenilins (PS) are required for gamma-secretase activity and the presence of two essential intramembranous aspartates (D257 and D385)

Biochemistry, 46(25), 7647-7654 (2007-06-01)
Gamma-secretase is important for the development of Alzheimer's disease, since it is a crucial enzyme for the generation of the pathogenic amyloid beta-peptide (Abeta). Most data on gamma-secretase is derived from studies in cell lines overexpressing gamma-secretase components or amyloid
