Abstract excerpt
The yeast Yarrowia lipolytica secretes an alkaline extracellular protease (AEP). It is first synthesized as a precursor comprising a putative signal peptide, a stretch of 10 X-Ala or X-Pro sequences that are substrates for a dipeptidyl aminopeptidase, a large pro-region that contains a glycosylation site and two Lys-Arg sites that can be cleaved by a KEX2-like endoprotease and finally the mature protease itself....
