Summary Accumulation of neurotoxic amyloid-beta is a major hallmark of Alzheimer disease (AD; MIM 104300). Formation of amyloid-beta is catalyzed by gamma-secretase (see PSEN1; MIM 104311), a protease with numerous substrates. PION, or GSAP, selectively increases

Protein name Gamma-secretase-activating protein (GSAP) (Protein pigeon homolog) [Cleaved into: Gamma-secretase-activating protein 16 kDa C-terminal form (GSAP-16K)]
Protein function Regulator of gamma-secretase activity, which specifically activates the production of amyloid-beta protein (amyloid-beta protein 40 and amyloid-beta protein 42), without affecting the cleavage of other gamma-secretase targets such has Notch. The
