We showed previously that maturation of the human frataxin precursor (p-fxn) involves two cleavages by the mitochondrial processing peptidase (MPP). This observation was not confirmed by another group, however, who reported only one cleavage. Here, we demonstrate conclusively that MPP cleaves p-fxn in two sequential steps.
