Peptidyl-glutamyl peptide-hydrolyzing activity

Peptidyl-glutamyl peptide-hydrolyzing activity

Peptidyl-glutamyl peptide-hydrolyzing (PGPH) enzyme activity is a means of proteolysis that cleaves peptide bonds in proteins immediately after acidic or branched-chain amino acids. One of the three catalytic β subunits of the proteasome has PGPH activity and is strongly inhibited by the proteasome inhibitor epoxomicin.Meng L, Mohan R, Kwok BHB, Elofsson M, Sin N, Crews CM. (1999). Epoxomicin, a potent and selective proteasome inhibitor, exhibits "in vivo" antiinflammatory activity. "Proc Natl Acad Sci USA" 96(18): 10403-10408.]
