ENZYME entry: EC 3.4.24.79

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/3.4.24.79
Accepted Name
pappalysin-1
Alternative Name(s)
insulin-like growth factor binding protein-4 protease
pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A
Reaction catalysed
Cleavage of the 135-Met-|-Lys-136 bond in insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-4, and the 143-Ser-|-Lys-144 bond in IGFBP-5
Comment(s)
  • Circulates in human pregnancy mainly as a complex with the proform of eosinophil major basic protein, which acts as an inhibitor of the peptidase.
  • The rate of hydrolysis of IGFBP-4 is increased about 20-fold by the presence of insulin-like growth factor (IGF), whereas that of IGFBP-5 is decreased about two-fold.
  • Belongs to peptidase family M43.
