membrane | localization of mature neprilysin, glycosylated in the Golgi apparatus, in membrane microdomains, i.e. lipid rafts, which are enriched in cholesterol and glycosphingolipids. Localization of the enzyme in lipid rafts is enhanced by its dimerization | Homo sapiens | 16020 | - |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
additional information | protease activities of the mature form of the enzyme do not differ between lipid rafts and nonlipid rafts. Cholesterol and other lipids regulate the localization of mature enzyme to lipid rafts, where the substrate amyloid beta peptide accumulates but does not modulate the protease activity of the enzyme | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | neprilysin is a neutral endopeptidase, is one of the major amyloid beta-degrading enzymes in the brain | Homo sapiens |
