Summary: Predicted to enable aspartic endopeptidase activity, intramembrane cleaving. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including amyloid-beta formation; axonal transport of mitochondrion; and nervous system development. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane and endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be part of gamma-secretase complex. Is expressed in female organism; heart; male organism; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; Alzheimer's disease 4; breast cancer; and dilated cardiomyopathy 1V. Orthologous to human PSEN2 (presenilin 2).

These results suggest that Psen2 plays a more prominent role in Notch signalling and embryo development in zebrafish than in mammals, and that the effect of reduced Psen2 can be ameliorated by Psen1 loss.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
