Catalytic typeCysteine
NC-IUBMBNot yet included in IUBMB recommendations.
Proteolytic eventsCutDB database (2 cleavages)
PhysiologyC-terminal domain of Drosophila hedgehog protein possesses a cysteine-dependent autoprocessing activity that results in an intramolecular cleavage of the full-length hedgehog protein and covalent attachment of a cholesterol moiety to the newly generated amino-terminal fragment. It is only this auto-processing activity that qualifies hedgehog as a peptidase.
