Abstract
The purification of an aminoacylproline hydrolase from guinea-pig intestinal mucosa is described. The enzyme, which is an aminopeptidase has a molecular weight of 112 000 and is activated by manganese and inhibited by zinc. Unlike other aminoacylproline hydrolases this enzyme displayed a broad substrate specificity. However, it was preferentially active against dipeptides containing proline in the C-terminal position.
