Application
Polymyxin acylase, from Pseudomonas sp., is a N-myristoyl cleaving enzyme that has been used to determine the N-myristoyl peptide sequence and may be useful in cancer research since it has antitumor activity against murine and human tumor cells .
Biochem/physiol Actions
Polymyxin acylase, from Pseudomonas sp. deacylates polymyxin group antibiotics and long-chain fatty acyl groups of proteins. Polymyxin acylase has an affinity for long-chain fatty acyl proteins in human carcinoma cells .

Polymyxin acylase isolated from Pseudomonas sp. M-6-3 was used as an N-myristoyl cleaving enzyme in order to determine a part of the N-terminal amino acid sequence of N-myristoyl proteins. The enzyme hydrolyzed a number of N-myristoyl oligopeptides at various hydrolysis

Polymyxin acylase from Pseudomonas sp. M-6-3 can deacylate not only polymyxin group antibiotics, but also the long-chain fatty acyl group of proteins and peptides. We found the in vitro antitumor activity of polymyxin acylase against murine and human tumor cells
