Summary
Integral membrane protein / protease
This clan contains proteins from both bacteria and eukaryotes. The Rhomboid protein is an intramembrane serine protease which is involved in epidermal growth factor (EGF)-dependent signalling pathways [1]. The DER1 family is involved in degradation of misfolded ER proteins [2].
This clan contains 4 families and the total number of domains in the clan is 32845. The clan was built by J Mistry.

Structures
For those sequences which have a structure in the Protein DataBank, we use the mapping between UniProt, PDB and Pfam coordinate systems from the MSD group, to allow us to map Pfam domains onto UniProt three-dimensional structures. The table below shows the mapping between the Pfam families in this clan, the corresponding UniProt entries, and the region of the three-dimensional structures that are available for that sequence.
