M18 peptidase aminopeptidase family; Peptidase M18 aminopeptidase family is widely distributed in bacteria and eukaryotes, but only the yeast aminopeptidase I and mammalian aspartyl aminopeptidase have been characterized to date. Yeast aminopeptidase I is active only in its dodecameric form with broad substrate specificity, acting on N-terminal leucine and most other amino acids. In contrast, the mammalian aspartyl aminopeptidase is highly selective for hydrolysis of N-terminal Asp or Glu residues from peptides. These enzymes have two catalytic zinc ions at the active site.

M18 peptidase aspartyl aminopeptidase; Peptidase M18 family, aspartyl aminopeptidase (DAP; EC 3.4.11.21) subfamily, is widely distributed in bacteria and eukaryotes. DAP cleaves only unblocked N-terminal acidic amino-acid residues. It is a cytosolic enzyme and is highly conserved; for example, the human enzyme has 51% identity to an aspartyl aminopeptidase-like protein in Arabidopsis thaliana. The mammalian DAP is highly selective for hydrolysis of N-terminal aspartate or glutamate residues from peptides. Unlike glutamyl aminopeptidase (M42), DAP does not cleave simple aminoaryl-arylamide substrates. Although there is lack of understanding of the function of this enzyme, it is thought to act in concert with other aminopeptidases to facilitate protein turnover because of their restricted specificities for the N-terminal aspartic and glutamic acid, which cannot be cleaved by any other aminopeptidases. The mammalian aspartyl aminopeptidase is possibly contributing to the catabolism of peptides, including those produced by the proteasome. It may also trim the N-terminus of peptides that are intended for the MHC class I system. In humans, DAP has been implicated in the specific function of converting angiotensin II to the vasoactive angiotensin III within the brain. Saccharomyces cerevisiae aminopeptidase I (Ape1) is involved in protein degradation in vacuoles (the yeast lysosomes) where it is transported by the unique cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting (Cvt) pathway under vegetative growth conditions and by the autophagy pathway during starvation. Its N-terminal propeptide region, which mediates higher-order complex formation, serves as a scaffolding cargo critical for the assembly of the Cvt vesicle for vacuolar delivery. Pseudomonas aeruginosa aminopeptidase (PaAP) shows that its activity is dependent on Co2+ rather than Zn2+, and is thus a cocatalytic cobalt peptidase rather than a zinc-dependent peptidase.

M18 peptidase aminopeptidase I; Peptidase M18 family, aminopeptidase I (vacuolar aminopeptidase I; polypeptidase; Leucine aminopeptidase IV; LAPIV; aminopeptidase III; aminopeptidase yscI; EC 3.4.11.22) subfamily. Aminopeptidase I is widely distributed in bacteria and eukaryotes, but only the yeast enzyme has been characterized to date. It is a vacuolar enzyme, synthesized as a cytosolic proform, and proteolytically matured upon arrival in the vacuole. The pro-aminopeptidase I (proAPI) does not enter the vacuole via the secretory pathway. In non-starved cells, it uses the cytoplasm to vacuole targeting (cvt) pathway and in cells starved for nitrogen, it is targeted to the vacuole via autophagy. Yeast aminopeptidase I is active only in its dodecameric form with broad substrate specificity, acting on all aminoacyl and peptidyl derivatives that contain a free alpha-amino group; this is in contrast to the highly selective M18 mammalian aspartyl aminopeptidase. N-terminal leucine and most other hydrophobic amino acid residues are the best substrates while glycine and charged amino acid residues in P1 position are cleaved much more slowly. This enzyme is strongly and specifically activated by zinc (Zn2+) and chloride (Cl-) ions.

This image shows a graphical summary of conserved domains identified on the query sequence.
The Show Concise/Full Display button at the top of the page can be used to select the desired level of detail: only top scoring hits
(labeled illustration) or all hits
(labeled illustration).
Domains are color coded according to superfamilies
to which they have been assigned. Hits with scores that pass a domain-specific threshold
(specific hits) are drawn in bright colors.
Others (non-specific hits) and
superfamily placeholders are drawn in pastel colors.
if a domain or superfamily has been annotated with functional sites (conserved features),
they are mapped to the query sequence and indicated through sets of triangles
