Studies related to the functional and regulatory aspects of proteolytic processing are of interest to cell biologists, developmental biologists and investigators who work on human diseases. Much of what is known about this topic derives from the study of the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP), which is involved in the pathology of Alzheimer’s disease, and of the Notch protein and its Delta ligand, which play roles during embryonic development and in biologic processes in the adult. The proteolytic processing of plasma membrane receptor proteins is under the control of different enzymes that are responsible for releasing the ectodomain into the extracellular environment, where it has the potential to function as a signaling molecule and/or regulate the availability of the receptor’s ligand. Following shedding of the ectodomain, the γ-secretase enzymatic complex cleaves the transmembrane domain and releases the cytoplasmic domain (ICD) of the receptor. The ICD can function in the cytoplasm and/or at the nucleus.
