Comments [?]

Function This protein specifically catalyzes the removal of signal peptides from prolipoproteins.
Catalytic activity Reaction=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.; EC=3.4.23.36;
Pathway Protein modification; lipoprotein biosynthesis (signal peptide cleavage).
case not defined <Property:Membrane> or <Property:Membrane=1>
Subcellular location Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
else case <Property:Membrane=2>
Subcellular location Cell inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
end case
Similarity Belongs to the peptidase A8 family.
