| UniProt functional annotation for P10507 | |||
| UniProt code: P10507. |
| Organism: | Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c) (Baker's yeast). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Saccharomycotina; Saccharomycetes; Saccharomycetales; Saccharomycetaceae; Saccharomyces. | |
| Function: | Catalytic subunit of the essential mitochondrial processing protease (MPP), which cleaves the mitochondrial sequence off newly imported precursors proteins (PubMed:2007593, PubMed:9299349, PubMed:9654444). Preferentially, cleaves after an arginine at position P2 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q03346, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2007593, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9299349, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9654444}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=Release of N-terminal transit peptides from precursor proteins imported into the mitochondrion, typically with Arg in position P2.; EC=3.4.24.64; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:2007593, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9299349, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9654444}; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:9654444}; Note=Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11470436, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9654444}; | |
| Activity regulation: | Binding to MAS2 is required for catalytic activity (PubMed:9654444, PubMed:9299349). Inhibited by high levels (> 1uM) of zinc (PubMed:9654444). Inhibited by metal chelators ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and O-phenanthroline (PubMed:9654444). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9299349, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9654444}. | |
| Subunit: | Heterodimer of MAS2 (alpha) and MAS1 (beta) subunits, forming the mitochondrial processing protease (MPP) in which MAS2 is involved in substrate recognition and binding and MAS1 is the catalytic subunit. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11470436, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9299349}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Mitochondrion matrix {ECO:0000269|PubMed:3044780}. | |
| Miscellaneous: | Present with 1360 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the peptidase M16 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
