9.B.1.1.1
The CAAX prenyl protease CAAX PP, ZMPSTE24 (FACE1, STE24).  The 3-d structure (2.0 Å resolution) revealed a seven TMS α-helical barrel structure surrounding a large water-filled intramembrane chamber capped by a zinc metalloprotease domain with the catlytic site facing into the chamber.  Mutations cause laminopathies (Quigley et al. 2013). Results showed: (1) a detailed view of the active site of ZMPSTE24, including water coordinating the catalytic zinc; (2) enhanced visualization of fenestrations providing access from the exterior to the interior cavity of the protein; (3) a view of the C-terminus extending away from the main body of the protein; (4) localization of ordered lipid and detergent molecules at internal and external surfaces and also projecting through fenestrations, and (5) water molecules associated with the surface of the internal cavity (Clark et al. 2017). A tripartite architecture of the human zinc metalloprotease Ste24 has been proposed (Goblirsch et al. 2019; see family description). ZMPSTE24 protects cells from SARS-CoV-2 spike-mediated pseudovirus infection and syncytia formation (Shilagardi et al. 2022).
