Defining Substrate Requirements for Cleavage of Farnesylated Prelamin A by the Integral Membrane Zinc Metalloprotease ZMPSTE24

2020-09-03

Abstract excerpt

The integral membrane zinc metalloprotease ZMPSTE24 plays a key role in the proteolytic processing of farnesylated prelamin A, the precursor of the nuclear scaffold protein lamin A. Failure of this processing step results in the accumulation of permanently farnesylated forms of prelamin A which cause the premature aging disease Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS), as well as related progeroid disorders, an...
