Descriptor insulisina
Entry term(s) insulinasa
Scope note: Enzima que cataliza la degradación de la insulina, el glucagón y otros polipéptidos. Es inhibida por la bacitracina, por los quelantes EDTA y 1,10-fenantrolina, así como por reactivos bloqueantes de tioles, como la N-etilmaleimida, pero no el fosforamidón. (Eur J Biochem 1994;223:1-5). EC 3.4.24.56.
