Crystal Structure Analysis of Fab-Bound Human Insulin Degrading Enzyme (IDE) in Complex with Amyloid-Beta (1-40)
| ||||||||||||
Structural highlights
FunctionIDE_HUMAN Plays a role in the cellular breakdown of insulin, IAPP, glucagon, bradykinin, kallidin and other peptides, and thereby plays a role in intercellular peptide signaling. Degrades amyloid formed by APP and IAPP. May play a role in the degradation and clearance of naturally secreted amyloid beta-protein by neurons and microglia.[1] [2] [3] See AlsoReferences
