CATH Classification

Domain Context

CATH Clusters

Superfamily Metalloproteases ("zincins"), catalytic domain
Functional Family CAAX prenyl protease 1

Enzyme Information

3.4.24.84
Ste24 endopeptidase.
based on mapping to UniProt O75844
The peptide bond hydrolyzed can be designated -C-|-A-A-X in which C is an S-isoprenylated cysteine residue, A is usually aliphatic and X is the C-terminal residue of the substrate protein, and may be any of several amino acids.
-!- One of two enzymes that can catalyze this processing step for mating a-factor in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. -!- Subsequently, the S-isoprenylated cysteine residue that forms the new C-terminus is methyl-esterified and forms a hydrophobic membrane- anchor. -!- Belongs to peptidase family M48.
