| UniProt functional annotation for Q02724 | |||
| UniProt code: Q02724. |
| Organism: | Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c) (Baker's yeast). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Saccharomycotina; Saccharomycetes; Saccharomycetales; Saccharomycetaceae; Saccharomyces. | |
| Function: | Protease that catalyzes two essential functions in the SUMO pathway: processing of full-length SMT3 to its mature form and deconjugation of SMT3 from targeted proteins. Has an essential role in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10094048}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=Hydrolysis of the alpha-linked peptide bond in the sequence Gly-Gly-|-Ala-Thr-Tyr at the C-terminal end of the small ubiquitin- like modifier (SUMO) propeptide, Smt3, leading to the mature form of the protein. A second reaction involves the cleavage of an epsilon- linked peptide bond between the C-terminal glycine of the mature SUMO and the lysine epsilon-amino group of the target protein.; EC=3.4.22.68; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:10882122}; | |
| Miscellaneous: | Present with 377 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the peptidase C48 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
