PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/3.4.17.11
Accepted Name
glutamate carboxypeptidase
Alternative Name(s)
carboxypeptidase G
carboxypeptidase G1
carboxypeptidase G2
Reaction catalysed
Release of C-terminal glutamate residues from a wide range of N-acylating moieties, including peptidyl, aminoacyl, benzoyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, folyl and pteroyl groups
Comment(s)
  • Produced by pseudomonads, Flavobacterium sp. and Acinetobacter sp.
  • Its ability to hydrolyze pteroyl-L-glutamate (folic acid) has led to its use as a folate-depleting, antitumor agent.
  • Belongs to peptidase family M20A.
