Secondary Information

Protein Function the alpha subunit of mitochondrial processing peptidase,which is a heterodimeric enzyme responsible for the cleavage of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial precursor proteins after import in the mitochondria.Also its responsible for the maturation of the vast majority of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins, which is necessary for life at the cellular level.
Biochemical Properties α-MPP is uniquely involved in substrate recognition and binding. The α-MPP subunit can bind precursor proteins in the absence of β-MPP with the same efficiency as the MPP heterodimer but does not cleave the substrate .
