GO:0016020
|
membrane
|
A lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it an attached to it. |
GO:0006508
|
proteolysis
|
The hydrolysis of proteins into smaller polypeptides and/or amino acids by cleavage of their peptide bonds. |
GO:0008236
|
serine-type peptidase activity
|
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a catalytic mechanism that involves a catalytic triad consisting of a serine nucleophile that is activated by a proton relay involving an acidic residue (e.g. aspartate or glutamate) and a basic residue (usually histidine). |
GO:0008233
|
peptidase activity
|
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of a peptide bond. A peptide bond is a covalent bond formed when the carbon atom from the carboxyl group of one amino acid shares electrons with the nitrogen atom from the amino group of a second amino acid. |
GO:0006627
|
protein processing involved in protein targeting to mitochondrion
|
The cleavage of peptide bonds in proteins, usually near the N terminus, contributing to the process of import into the mitochondrion. Several different peptidases mediate cleavage of proteins destined for different mitochondrial compartments. |
