Mechanism of intramembrane proteolysis investigated with purified rhomboid proteases.
Intramembrane proteases have the unusual property of cleaving peptide bonds within the lipid bilayer, an environment not obviously suited to a water-requiring hydrolysis reaction. These enzymes include site-2 protease, gamma-secretase/presenilin, signal peptide peptidase and the rhomboids, and they...
