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. Secretedcell 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.
