Deskripsi

Presequence protease (PreP) is essential to mitochondrial proteostasis. This study leverages advanced vitrification techniques to solve cryoEM structures of apo- and substrate-bound PreP and integrates these data with other analysis to reveal key stages and mechanistic insights of the PreP catalytic cycle.
