| description | Mitochondrial-processing peptidase complex removes the first transit peptide from the N terminus of proteins synthesised in the cytoplasm but destined for the mitochondrion []. The complex is a heterodimer of an alpha and a beta subunit. This entry includes the beta subunit (MAS1 or MPPB; ; MEROPS identifier M16.003), which is a zinc-dependent metallo-endopeptidase that binds one zinc ion via the histidines in an HXXEH motif and a Glu C-terminal to this motif []. MAS1 is itself synthesised in the cytoplasm and has an N-terminal transit peptide []. |
