Comments This enzyme has wide substrate specificity, being able to degrade heat-denatured bovine casein and the ¦Á-chain of native human fibrinogen. It cleaves the B chain of bovine insulin at Leu6©àCya7, Tyr16©àLeu17, Phe25©àTyr26?and Tyr26©àThr27?[1]. It is thought to play a role in the desquamation (skin-shedding) of the outer layer of skin, the stratum corneum, by degrading intercellular cohesive structures [1,2]. Belongs in peptidase family?S1A.
Cofactor
History
Reactions Cleavage of proteins with aromatic side chains in the P1 position.
