Structure-Function and Industrial Relevance of Bacterial Aminopeptidase P
Aminopeptidase P (APPro, E.C 3.4.11.9) cleaves N-terminal amino acids from peptides and proteins where the penultimate residue is proline. This metal-ion-dependent enzyme shares a similar fold, catalytic mechanism, and substrate specificity with methionine aminopeptidase and prolidase. It adopts a c...
