The Aeromonas proteolytica aminopeptidase (AMP), Pseudomonas sp. (RS-16) carboxypeptidase G2 (CPG2), and Streptomyces griseus aminopeptidase (SGAP) are zinc dependent proteolytic enzymes with cocatalytic zinc ion centers and a conserved aminopeptidase fold. A BLAST search with the sequence of the solved

Glutamate 151 has been proposed to act as the general acid/base during the peptide hydrolysis reaction catalyzed by the co-catalytic metallohydrolase from Aeromonas proteolytica (AAP). However, to date, no direct evidence has been reported for the role of Glu-151 during
Peptide-derived thiols of the general structure N-mercaptoacyl-leucyl-p-nitroanilide (1a-c) were synthesized and found to be potent, slow-binding inhibitors of the aminopeptidase from Aeromonas proteolytica (AAP). The overall potencies (K(I)) of these inhibitors against AAP range from 2.5 to 57 nM exceeding
The chemical properties of zinc make it an ideal metal to study the role of coordination strain in enzymatic rate enhancement. The zinc ion and the protein residues that are bound directly to the zinc ion represent a functional charge/dipole

An aminopeptidase from Aeromonas caviae T-64 was translated as a preproprotein consisting of three domains; a signal peptide (19 amino acid residues), an N-terminal propeptide (101 residues) and a mature region (273 residues). We demonstrated that a proteinase, which was
