γ-Secretase: a horseshoe structure brings good luck.

Michael S Wolfe1, Dennis J Selkoe2.   

Abstract

The intramembrane protease γ-secretase is a key player in signaling and Alzheimer's disease, but its structural features have remained obscure. A structure reported recently reveals a horseshoe-shaped arrangement of 19 transmembrane helices and an extracellular domain positioned for substrate recognition. This advance bodes well for a finer resolution before long.
