Overview
This gene encodes a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is an integral component of the multimeric gamma-secretase complex. The encoded protein cleaves integral membrane proteins, including Notch receptors and beta-amyloid precursor protein, and may be a stabilizing cofactor required for gamma-secretase complex assembly. The cleavage of beta-amyloid precursor protein yields amyloid beta peptide, the main component of the neuritic plaque and the hallmark lesion in the brains of patients with Alzheimers disease; however, the nature of the encoded proteins role in Alzheimers disease is not known for certain. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial acne inversa. A pseudogene of this gene is present on chromosome 21. Alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014] -

NCSTN has several biochemical functions, for example, endopeptidase activity, protein binding. Some of the functions are cooperated with other proteins, some of the functions could acted by NCSTN itself. We selected most functions NCSTN had, and list some proteins which have the same functions with NCSTN. You can find most of the proteins on our site.
