A mitochondrial rhomboid protease.
Rhomboid proteases are integral membrane proteins, typically associated with cleavage of peptide hormones along the secretory pathway. Recent publications demonstrate that yeast mitochondria contain a rhomboid protease required for the cleavage of two mitochondrial intermembrane space proteins, suggesting that rhomboid proteases play a regulatory role in mitochondria.
