It has a mass of approximately 29 kDa. APH1a is expressed in various tissues with a high presence in brain regions and other human tissues. As a gamma-secretase component APH1a contributes to the intramembrane proteolysis of type I transmembrane proteins such as the Notch receptor and amyloid precursor protein (APP).\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nAs part of the gamma-secretase complex the APH1a protein facilitates intra-membrane cleavage processes. It associates with other key complex members like presenilin nicastrin and PEN-2. This complex's activity is important for the proper functioning of the Notch signaling pathway and amyloid-beta production both of which have important roles in cell differentiation and signaling in various organisms.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nAPH1a is directly implicated in both the Notch signaling and amyloid precursor protein pathways. These are significant pathways impacting cellular communication and plaque formation in the brain. APH1a's interaction with proteins such as presenilin and nicastrin highlights its broader regulatory role particularly influencing developmental processes through Notch signaling and contributing to amyloid-beta genesis in neurobiological contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\nResearchers associate APH1a with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and cancer. In Alzheimer's its role in the gamma-secretase complex impacts amyloid-beta production a substance linked to the neurodegenerative process. Additionally alterations in the Notch signaling pathway involving APH1a and related proteins like presenilin may contribute to certain cancers due to its influence on cell proliferation and differentiation. Understanding APH1a's interactions and functions offers valuable insights into these disease mechanisms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845147873449,"sku":"ab266016","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab266016","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
