Enzyme Information
| 3.4.21.89 | Signal peptidase I. based on mapping to UniProt P00803 Cleavage of hydrophobic, N-terminal signal or leader sequences from secreted and periplasmic proteins. -!- Unaffected by inhibitors of most serine peptidases, but site-directed mutagenesis implicates a Ser/Lys catalytic dyad in activity. -!- Cleaves a single bond -Ala-|-Ala- in M13 phage procoat protein, producing free signal peptide and coat protein. -!- Eukaryote signal peptidases that may have somewhat different specificity are known from the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and mitochondrial inner membrane. -!- Belongs to peptidase family S26. -!- Formerly EC 3.4.99.36. |
