General annotations

  • Annotation
    Helical;
  • Annotation
    This protein specifically catalyzes the removal of signal peptides from prolipoproteins (By similarity).
  • Annotation
    Release of signal peptides from bacterial membrane prolipoproteins. Hydrolyzes -Xaa-Yaa-Zaa-|-(S,diacylglyceryl)Cys-, in which Xaa is hydrophobic (preferably Leu), and Yaa (Ala or Ser) and Zaa (Gly or Ala) have small, neutral side chains.
  • Annotation
    Protein modification; lipoprotein biosynthesis (signal peptide cleavage).
  • Annotation
    Belongs to the peptidase A8 family.
