| Official Name |
| Neurolysin.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
| Neurotensin endopeptidase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
| Preferential cleavage in neurotensin: 10-Pro-|-Tyr-11 |
| Cofactor(s) |
| Zinc.
|
| Comment(s) |
- No absolute requirement for a prolyl bond; the enzyme acts on some
peptides, such as dynorphin 1-8, that do not contain proline,
and does not act on some others that do.
- Belongs to peptidase family M3.
