3.4.11.25

Accepted name:

β-peptidyl aminopeptidase

Reaction:

Cleaves N-terminal β-homoamino acids from peptides composed of 2 to 6 amino acids

Other name(s):

BapA (ambiguous)

Comments:

Sphingosinicella xenopeptidilytica strain 3-2W4 is able to utilize the β-peptides β-homoVal-β-homoAla-β-homoLeu and β-homoAla-β-homoLeu as sole carbon and energy sources [2].
