説明

Aminopeptidase B is a Zn2+-dependent exopeptidase that selectively removes arginine and/or lysine from the amino terminus of peptide substrates. This enzyme is a metalloprotease commonly found on the surface of mammalian cells, including macrophages and lymphocytes. Arphamenine B is an aminopeptidase B inhibitor first isolated from bacteria. Like the aminopeptidase inhibitors bestatin and amastatin , arphamenine B enhances immune responses. Arphamenine B is commonly used to characterize novel proteases.
