Immunogen

Range: Leu544 - Ser806

Target

Metalloendopeptidase of the mitochondrial matrix that functions in peptide cleavage and degradation rather than in protein processing (PubMed:10360838, PubMed:16849325, PubMed:19196155, PubMed:24931469) . Has an ATP-independent activity (PubMed:16849325) . Specifically cleaves peptides in the range of 5 to 65 residues (PubMed:19196155) . Shows a preference for cleavage after small polar residues and before basic residues, but without any positional preference (PubMed:10360838, PubMed:19196155, PubMed:24931469) . Degrades the transit peptides of mitochondrial proteins after their cleavage (PubMed:19196155) . Also degrades other unstructured peptides (PubMed:19196155) . It is also able to degrade amyloid-beta protein 40, one of the peptides produced by APP processing, when it accumulates in mitochondrion (PubMed:16849325, PubMed:24931469) . It is a highly efficient protease, at least toward amyloid-beta protein 40 (PubMed:24931469) . Cleaves that peptide at a specific position and is probably not processive, releasing digested peptides intermediates that can be further cleaved subsequently (PubMed:24931469) .
