Abstract
Background: Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase (PSD) undergoes an autoendoproteolytic cleavage but the mechanism has not been defined.
Results: PSD proenzyme processing occurs by a canonical serine protease mechanism catalyzed by a conserved aspartate-histidine-serine triad. Conclusion: PSD proenzyme executes a proteolytic reaction in cis that creates the active site of the decarboxylase. Significance: The mechanism of autoendoproteolyic processing of PSDs across phyla has been elucidated.Item Type: | Articles |
