Effects of presenilin-1 familial Alzheimer’s disease mutations on γ-secretase activation for cleavage of amyloid precursor protein
Gaussian accelerated molecular dynamics (GaMD) simulations and biochemical experiments in E.Coli provide mechanistic insight into how Presenilin-1 familial Alzheimer’s disease mutations affect structural dynamics and enzyme-substrate interactions of γ-secretase and APP
