CAAX prenyl protease 1, N-terminal
InterPro entry
Short name | Peptidase_M48_N |
Description
This entry represents the N-terminal five transmembrane α-helices domain of CAAX prenyl protease 1 (also known as Ste24 in budding yeast). Ste24 is a zinc metalloprotease catalysing two proteolytic steps in the maturation of yeast mating pheromone a-factor
[1]. The structures of Ste24 and its human homologue, ZMPSTE24, have been revealed
[1, 2].
