摘要

The deavage model for signal transduction by receptors of the LIN-12/Notch family posits that ligand binding leads to cleavage within the transmembrane domain, so that the intracellular do- main is released to translocate to the nucleus and activate target gene expression. The familial Alzheimer's disease-associated pro- tein Presenilin is required for LIN-12/Notch signaling, and several lines of evidence suggest that Presenilin mediates the transmem- brane cleavage event that releases the LlN-12/Notch intracellular domain. However, doubt was cast on this possibility by a report that Presenilin is not required for the transducing activity of N~ECN, a constitutively active transmembrane form of Notch, in Drosoph- ila. Here, we have reassessed this finding and show instead that Presenilin is required for activity of N~ECN for all cell fate decisions examined. Our results indicate that transmembrane cleavage and signal transduction are strictly correlated, supporting the cleavage model for signal transduction by LIN-12/Notch and a role for Presenilin in mediating the ligand-induced transmembrane cleavage.
