| UniProt code: P09391. |
| Organism: | Escherichia coli (strain K12). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. | |
| Function: | Rhomboid-type serine protease that catalyzes intramembrane proteolysis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16216077, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17099694}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=Cleaves type-1 transmembrane domains using a catalytic dyad composed of serine and histidine that are contributed by different transmembrane domains.; EC=3.4.21.105; | |
| Subcellular location: | Cell inner membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16216077}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16216077}. | |
| Domain: | The loop between transmembrane domains 5 and 6 is flexible and may readily open to the extracellular side to allow water entry into the active site cavity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17099694}. | |
