Reaction ID |
hydrolysis of proteins with broad specificity similar to that of pepsin A, preferring hydrophobic residues at P1 and P1'. Clots milk and activates trypsinogen. Does not cleave Gln4-His, but does cleave His10-/-Leu and Val12-/-Glu in B chain of insulin |
aspartate protease which requires also a His residue for catalytic activity |
