Superfamily Neutral Protease Domain 2
Functional Family Leucyl-cystinyl aminopeptidase

Enzyme Information

3.4.11.3
Cystinyl aminopeptidase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q9UIQ6
Release of an N-terminal amino acid, Cys-|-Xaa-, in which the half- cystine residue is involved in a disulfide loop, notably in oxytocin or vasopressin. Hydrolysis rates on a range of aminoacyl arylamides exceed that for the cystinyl derivative, however.
-!- Belongs to peptidase family M1.
