ID   3.4.23.20
DE   penicillopepsin.
AN   Penicillium janthinellum aspartic protease.
AN   peptidase A.
CA   Hydrolysis of proteins with broad specificity similar to that of pepsin
CA   A, preferring hydrophobic residues at P1 and P1', but also cleaving
CA   20-Gly-|-Glu-21 in the B chain of insulin. Clots milk, and activates
CA   trypsinogen.
CC   -!- From the imperfect fungus Penicillium janthinellum.
CC   -!- Closely related enzymes have been isolated from P.roqueforti and
CC       P.duponti.
CC   -!- Belongs to peptidase family A1.
CC   -!- Formerly EC 3.4.4.17, EC 3.4.23.6 and EC 3.4.23.7.
