General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Mediates digestion of the cell walls of the 2 mating type gametes during mating as a necessary prelude to cell fusion. This enzyme acts specifically on the framework proteins (inner wall) of the cell wall, cleaving several model peptides at specific sites. |
| Catalytic activity | Cleavage of the proline- and hydroxyproline-rich proteins of the Chlamydomonas cell wall; also cleaves azocasein, gelatin and Leu-Trp-Met-|-Arg-Phe-Ala. |
| Cofactor | Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit By similarity. |
| Subcellular location | Periplasm. Secreted › cell wall. Note: Stored in the periplasm of gametes until its release. Secreted concurrently with release of the cell walls. |
| Induction | By the signal of flagellar agglutination between gametes of the opposite mating type. |
| Domain | The conserved cysteine present in the cysteine-switch motif binds the catalytic zinc ion, thus inhibiting the enzyme. The dissociation of the cysteine from the zinc ion upon the activation-peptide release activates the enzyme. |
| Post-translational modification | Present in 2 forms: an inactive V-form in vegetative cells and an active and soluble G-form. The V-form enzyme may be converted to the G-form enzyme during gametic differentiation under nitrogen-starved conditions. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the peptidase M11 family. |
