In vivo analysis reveals substrate-gating mutants of a rhomboid intramembrane protease display increased activity in living cells

Intramembrane proteases hydrolyze peptide bonds within cell membranes. Recent crystal structures revealed that rhomboid intramembrane proteases contain a hydrated active site that opens to the outside of the cell, but is protected laterally from membrane lipids by protein segments. Using E. coli rho...
