serine-type peptidase activity
id: GO:0008236
name: serine-type peptidase activity
namespace: molecular_function
type: go
obsolete: False
Description: Catalysis of the hydrolysis of peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a catalytic mechanism that involves a catalytic triad consisting of a serine nucleophile that is activated by a proton relay involving an acidic residue (e.g. aspartate or glutamate) and a basic residue (usually histidine).
