PubMed Abstract: Deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides in the brain is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease. Aβs are generated through sequential proteolysis of the amyloid precursor protein by the γ-secretase complexes (GSECs). Aβ peptide length, modulated by the Presenilin (PSEN) and APH-1 subunits of GSEC, is critical for Alzheimer's pathogenesis. Despite high relevance, mechanistic understanding of the proteolysis of Aβ, and its modulation by APH-1, remain incomplete. Here, we report cryo-EM structures of human GSEC (PSEN1/APH-1B) reconstituted into lipid nanodiscs in apo form and in complex with the intermediate Aβ46 substrate without cross-linking. We find that three non-conserved and structurally divergent APH-1 regions establish contacts with PSEN1, and that substrate-binding induces concerted rearrangements in one of the identified PSEN1/APH-1 interfaces, providing structural basis for APH-1 allosteric-like effects. In addition, the GSEC-Aβ46 structure reveals an interaction between Aβ46 and loop 1, and identifies three other H-bonding interactions that, according to functional validation, are required for substrate recognition and efficient sequential catalysis.
