medicine | mutations in the ZMPSTE24 gene lead to incomplete maturation of prelamin A and as a consequence to the premature aging disease Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome. In general, the residual activity of ZMPSTE24 patient alleles correlates with disease severity. Complete loss-of-function alleles are associated with restrictive dermopathy, whereas retention of partial, measureable activity results in mandibuloacral dysplasia type B or severe progeria | Homo sapiens |

prelamin A + H2O | - |
Homo sapiens | lamin A + ? | enzyme cleaves the prenylated and carboxylmethylated 15-amino acid tail from the C-terminus of prelamin A to yield mature lamin. Mutations in the lamin A gene that eliminate the ZMPSTE24 cleavage site lead to the premature aging disease Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome | ? | |
prelamin A + H2O | the C-terminal 41 amino acids of prelamin A contain sufficient context to allow cleavage of the tail by ZMPSTE24. Mutations in amino acids immediately surrounding the cleavage site (between Y646 and L647) interfere with efficient cleavage of the prelamin A tail, e,g R644C, L648A and N650A, in addition to L647R. 9 of the 15 residues within the cleaved tail that lie immediately upstream of the CAAX motif are not critical for ZMPSTE24-mediated cleavage, duplication of the same 9 amino acids impairs the ability of ZMPSTE24 to cleave prelamin A | Homo sapiens | lamin A + ? | - |
