UniProt Q9H4A4 Organism Homo sapiens Gene APB, RNPEP EC 3.4.11.6

Also known as: APB, RNPEP

Function

Exopeptidase which selectively removes arginine and/or lysine residues from the N-terminus of several peptide substrates including Arg(0)-Leu-enkephalin, Arg(0)-Met-enkephalin and Arg(-1)-Lys(0)-somatostatin-14. Can hydrolyze leukotriene A4 (LTA-4) into leukotriene B4 (LTB-4) (By similarity).
