Abstract
This group of serine peptidases belong to MEROPS peptidase family S41 (clan SM), subfamily S41A (C-terminal processing peptidase). It is a family of C-terminal peptidases with different substrates in different species, including processing of D1 protein of the photosystem II reaction centre in higher plants [ 1 ], and cleavage of a peptide of 11 residues from the precursor form of penicillin-binding protein in Escherichia coli [ 2 ].
