Leucine aminopeptidase LyLAP enables lysosomal degradation of membrane proteins | Science

Breakdown of every transmembrane protein trafficked to lysosomes requires proteolysis of their hydrophobic helical transmembrane domains. Combining lysosomal proteomics with functional genomic datasets, we identified lysosomal leucine aminopeptidase (...
