SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION
basic FUNCTION
  • involved in antigen presentation via MHC class 1
  • beta secretase, catalyzing the degradation of somatostatin peptide from APP
  • involved in the metabolism of neuropeptides under 20 amino acid residues long
  • able to degrade the beta-amyloid precursor protein and generate amyloidogenic fragments
  • play a major role in degrading proteasome products
    • CELLULAR PROCESS protein, degradation
