FunFam 2: N-acetylated-alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase 2

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Glutamate carboxypeptidase II. [EC: 3.4.17.21]
Release of an unsubstituted, C-terminal glutamyl residue, typically from Ac-Asp-Glu or folylpoly-gamma-glutamates.
  • Hydrolyzes alpha-peptide bonds in Ac-Asp-Glu, Asp-Glu, and Glu-Glu, but also gamma-glutamyl bonds in gamma-Glu-Glu and folylpoly-gamma- glutamates.
  • With folylpoly-gamma-glutamates, shows processive carboxypeptidase activity to produce pteroylmonoglutamate.
  • Does not hydrolyze Ac-beta-Asp-Glu.
  • Inhibited by quisqualic acid, Ac-beta-Asp-Glu, and 2-phosphonomethyl- pentanedioate.
  • The release of C-terminal glutamate from folylpoly-gamma-glutamates is also catalyzed by EC 3.4.17.11 and EC 3.4.19.9.
  • Belongs to peptidase family M28.
  • Formerly EC 3.4.19.8.
