<p align="justify">Lon proteins are grouped into two families, '''LonA''' and '''LonB'''. The human protein LonP1 is part of the LonA proteins. This protein has three isoforms obtained by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_splicing alternative splicing] of the portion of DNA coding for this protein. | <p align="justify">Lon proteins are grouped into two families, '''LonA''' and '''LonB'''.

Globally there is a great diversity of Lon proteins, but they are all organised in an oligomeric ring structure, mostly hexameric structure with identical subunits. | Globally there is a great diversity of Lon proteins, but they are all organised in an oligomeric ring structure, mostly hexameric structure with identical subunits. | ||
