About APH1B

Cytogenetic location: 15q22.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 15:63,277,605-63,309,126 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 192 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 23.1), thyroid (RPKM 13.1) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a multi-pass transmembrane protein that is a functional component of the gamma-secretase complex, which also contains presenilin and nicastrin. This protein represents a stabilizing cofactor for the presenilin holoprotein in the complex. The gamma-secretase complex catalyzes the cleavage of integral proteins such as Notch receptors and beta-amyloid precursor protein. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
