Peptidolytic enzymes in different larval stadium of housefly Musca domestica
Veterinární Medicína, 2006 Four classes of peptidolytic enzymes were described in insects. Many authors have found predominant activity belonging to trypsin-like and chymotrypsin-like activity.

Characterization of aminopeptidase encoding gene anp-1 and its association with development in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Background Aminopeptidases play important roles in various biological processes in nematodes including growth, development and reproduction. Although the aminopeptidases have been shown to regulate reproduction in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans), the

Aminopeptidase C of Aspergillus niger is a Novel Phenylalanine Aminopeptidase [PDF]
, 2003 A novel enzyme with a specific phenylalanine aminopeptidase activity (ApsC) from Aspergillus niger (CBS 120.49) has been characterized. The derived amino acid sequence is not similar to any previously characterized aminopeptidase sequence but does share ...

Klotho and Aminopeptidases as Early Biomarkers of Renal Injury in Zucker Obese Rats
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 The aim of this study was to investigate if urinary glutamyl aminopeptidase (GluAp), alanyl aminopeptidase (AlaAp), Klotho and hydroxyproline can be considered as potential biomarkers of renal injury and fibrosis in an experimental model of obesity. Male

Structurally Distinct Active Sites in the Copper(II)-Substituted Aminopeptidases from \u3cem\u3eAeromonas proteolytica\u3c/em\u3e and \u3cem\u3eEscherichia coli\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
, 2002 The aminopeptidase from Aeromonas proteolytica (AAP) was titrated with copper, which bound sequentially at two distinct sites. Both the mono- and disubstituted forms of AAP exhibited catalytic hyperactivity relative to the native dizinc enzyme ...
