IPR039245

Description

IPR039245 is a Peroxisomal/glyoxysomal leader peptide-processing protease.

<p>The peroxisomal leader peptide-processing protease (TYSND1, trypsin domain-containing 1) removes the N-terminal transit peptide from proteins containing a PTS2 target sequence [[cite:PUB00089352]]. The plant glyoxysomal processing protease (DEG15) performs a similar function in the glyoxysome, a specialized peroxisome. DEG15 exists as a homodimer or as a monomer; as a dimer it is a processing enzyme, as a monomer it degrades denatured proteins [[cite:PUB00089353]]. These peptidases are trypsin homologues and members of MEROPS family S1 and subfamily S1B. Cleavage requires a cysteine residue in P1 or P2 [[cite:PUB00089353]].</p>

GO term Namespace Name Definition Relationships
Molecular function Serine-type endopeptidase activity Catalysis of the hydrolysis of internal, alpha-peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a catalytic mechanism that involves a catalytic triad consisting of a serine nucleophile that is activated by a proton relay involving an acidic residue (e.g. aspartate or glutamate) and a basic residue (usually histidine).
Cellular component Peroxisome A small organelle enclosed by a single membrane, and found in most eukaryotic cells. Contains peroxidases and other enzymes involved in a variety of metabolic processes including free radical detoxification, lipid catabolism and biosynthesis, and hydrogen peroxide metabolism.
Biological process Protein processing Any protein maturation process achieved by the cleavage of a peptide bond or bonds within a protein. Protein maturation is the process leading to the attainment of the full functional capacity of a protein.
