Lon degrades stable substrates slowly but with enhanced processivity, redefining the attributes of a successful AAA+ protease

Summary: Lon is a widely distributed AAA+ (ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities) protease known for degrading poorly folded and damaged proteins and is often classified as a weak protein unfoldase. Here, using a Lon-degron pair from Mesoplasma florum (MfLon and MfssrA, respectively),...
