A rapid and sensitive assay method for the determination of PZ-peptidase activity is reported. This method is based on the monitoring of the absorption at 320 nm of 4-phenylazobenzyloxycarbonyl-L-Pro-L-Leu (PZ-Pro-Leu), enzymatically formed from the substrate 4-phenylazobenzyloxycarbonyl-L-Pro-L-Leu-Gly-L-Pro-D-Arg (PZ-peptide), after separation by
Thimet oligopeptidase (EC 3.4.24.15) is a thiol-dependent metallo-endopeptidase also known as Pz-peptidase, collagenase-like peptidase, endooligopeptidase A, soluble metallo-endopeptidase and endopeptidase 24.15. The enzyme is closely related to the yeast proteinase yscD. Thimet oligopeptidase (M(r) 74000) is widely distributed in animals

Tervalent cations of the lanthanide (rare-earth) elements reversibly inhibit bacterial collagenase (clostridiopeptidase A; EC 3.4.24.3). Sm(3+), whose ionic radius is closest to that of Ca(2+), is the most effective inhibitor, completely suppressing clostridiopeptidase activity at a concentration of 100mum in
