3.4.24.76 |
| Accepted name: |
flavastacin |
| Reaction: |
Hydrolyses polypeptides on the amino-side of Asp in -Xaa┼Asp-. Acts very slowly on -Xaa┼Glu |
| Comments: |
A zinc metalloendopeptidase in peptidase family M12 (astacin family), secreted by the bacterium Flavobacterium meningosepticum . The specificity is similar to that of EC 3.4.24.33, peptidyl-Asp metalloendopeptidase from Pseudomonas fragi but the two are reported to be structurally dissimilar |
