DE   Ste24 endopeptidase.
AN   CAAX prenyl protease 1.
AN   prenyl protein-specific endoprotease 1.
CA   The peptide bond hydrolyzed can be designated -C-|-A-A-X in which C is an
CA   S-isoprenylated cysteine residue, A is usually aliphatic and X is the
CA   C-terminal residue of the substrate protein, and may be any of several
CA   amino acids.
CC   -!- One of two enzymes that can catalyze this processing step for mating
CC       a-factor in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
CC   -!- Subsequently, the S-isoprenylated cysteine residue that forms the new
CC       C-terminus is methyl-esterified and forms a hydrophobic membrane-
CC       anchor.
CC   -!- Belongs to peptidase family M48.
