Function

* specifity may be broad, including many single transmembrane proteins that undergo cytoplasmic domain release from membrane

Structure

Compartment

  • PS1 & PS2 are associated with membranes of the secretory pathway & appear to be involved in protein trafficking, but may also be associated with the plasma membrane.
