Descriptor English: Glutamyl Aminopeptidase
Descriptor Spanish: Glutamil Aminopeptidasa
Descriptor glutamil aminopeptidasa
Scope note: Aminopeptidasa de membrana y dependiente del ZINC que cataliza la escisión del péptido N-terminal del GLUTAMATO (y en menor medida del ASPARTATO). La enzima parece intervenir en la vía catabólica del SISTEMA RENINA-ANGIOTENSINA.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D043384
Scope note: A ZINC-dependent membrane-bound aminopeptidase that catalyzes the N-terminal peptide cleavage of GLUTAMATE (and to a lesser extent ASPARTATE). The enzyme appears to play a role in the catabolic pathway of the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN SYSTEM.
