'''Rhomboid protease''' (GlpG) is a transmembranal serine protease. The active site is buried in the lipid bilayer of cell membrane. It cleaves proteins within their transmembrane domain<ref>PMID:18605900</ref>. Rhomboids regulate many cellular processes and are involved in many human diseases. The catalytic site of rhomboids contains a hydrophilic pocket protected from the lipid bilayer. Rhomboids are specific for a single transmembranal helix proteins. | '''Rhomboid protease''' ('''GlpG''') is a transmembranal serine protease.
