Protein Predictive Modeling and Simulation of Mutations of Presenilin-1 Familial Alzheimer’s Disease on the Orthosteric Site
Alzheimer’s disease pathology is characterized by β-amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Amyloid precursor protein is processed by β and γ secretase, resulting in the production of β-amyloid peptides with a length ranging from 38 to 43 amino acids. Presenilin 1 (PS1) is the catalytic unit of...
