EC 3.4.14.9     
Accepted name: tripeptidyl-peptidase I
Reaction: Release of an N-terminal tripeptide from a polypeptide, but also has endopeptidase activity.
Other name(s): tripeptidyl aminopeptidase; tripeptidyl peptidase
Comments: A lysosomal enzyme that is active at acidic pH. Deficient in classical late-infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis brain tissue. Belongs in peptidase family S53. Formerly included in EC 3.4.14.8.
