Description | Following prenylation, proteins are subject to prenyl-dependent modifications at their C-terminal end, which are required for their subcellular targeting. The three C-terminal residues of the CAAX box prenylation signaling motif are removed before methylation of the free carboxyl group of the prenyl cysteine moiety.CAAX prenyl protease 1 (also known as Ste24p) removes the C-terminal three residues of CAAX [ , ]. It also acts to cleave the N-terminal extension of the farnesylated A-factor mating pheromone in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [, , ]. |
