Abstract excerpt
The EGY3 protein is a homologue of site-2 proteases, which are intramembrane zinc metalloproteases. EGY3 itself lacks proteolytic activity due to the absence of a zinc-binding motif. Plentiful evidence indicates that such intramembrane 'pseudoproteases' play significant roles in many diverse processes occurring within the cell. However, the physiological functions of EGY3, as well as its subcellular localization,...
