EC 3.4.24.31 Details
EC number
3.4.24.31
Accepted name
mycolysin
Reaction
Preferential cleavage of bonds with hydrophobic residues in P1′
Other name(s)
pronase component, Streptomyces griseus neutral proteinase, actinase E, SGNPI
CAS registry number
153190-34-2
Comment
The enzyme has been characterized from the bacteria Streptomyces griseus, Streptomyces naraensis, and Streptomyces cacaoi. Specificity is similar to that of thermolysin, but the enzyme is much more sensitive to inhibition by sulfanylacetyl-Phe-Leu. Little structural similarity to other bacterial metalloendopeptidases. Type example of peptidase family M5.
