| Accepted Name |
|---|
| Candidapepsin.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| Candida albicans aspartic proteinase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| Preferential cleavage at the carboxyl of hydrophobic amino acids, but fails to cleave 15-Leu-|-Tyr-16, 16-Tyr-|-Leu-17 and 24-Phe-|-Phe-25 of insulin B chain. Activates trypsinogen, and degrades keratin |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- This endopeptidase from the imperfect yeast Candida albicans is
inhibited by pepstatin, but not by methyl 2-diazoacetamido-hexanoate
or 1,2-epoxy-3-(p-nitrophenoxy)propane.
- Belongs to peptidase family A1.
