Accepted Name
dipeptidyl-peptidase III
Alternative Name(s)
dipeptidyl aminopeptidase III
dipeptidyl arylamidase III
DPP III
enkephalinase B
red cell angiotensinase
Reaction catalysed
Release of an N-terminal dipeptide from a peptide comprising four or more residues, with broad specificity. Also acts on dipeptidyl 2-naphthylamides
Comment(s)
  • A cytosolic peptidase that is active at neutral pH.
