UniProtKB - Q8N6M6 (AMPO_HUMAN)

Protein

Aminopeptidase O

Gene

AOPEP

Organism
Homo sapiens (Human)
Status
Reviewed-Annotation score: -Experimental evidence at protein leveli

Functioni

Aminopeptidases catalyze the hydrolysis of amino acid residues from the N-terminus of peptide or protein substrates. Able to cleave angiotensin III to generate angiotensin IV, a bioactive peptide of the renin-angiotensin pathway. Not able to cleave angiotensin I and angiotensin II. May play a role in the proteolytic processing of bioactive peptides in tissues such as testis and heart.1 Publication

Cofactori

Zn2+By similarityNote: Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.By similarity

Activity regulationi

Strongly inhibited by ophenanthroline, a metalloprotease inhibitor. Inhibited by arphamenine A, a potent inhibitor of aminopeptidases. Not affected by AEBSF and E-64, which are common inhibitors of serine- and cysteine-proteases, respectively.1 Publication
