ENZYME entry: EC 3.4.14.4

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.
  • It has broad activity on peptides, although it is highly selective for Arg-Arg-2-naphthylamide, at pH 9.2.
  • Active in the hydrolysis of enkephalins.
  • Belongs to peptidase family M49.
