What is the substrate of carboxypeptidase?
What is the substrate of carboxypeptidase? Carboxypeptidase A (CPD A) prefers peptide and protein substrates with an aromatic or branched-chain C-terminal while carboxypeptidase B (CPD B) prefers basic side chain amino acids such as Arg and Lys. What is the product of carboxypeptidase? Carboxypeptidases cleave amino acids from the C-terminus of proteins and peptides and many are metalloproteases. What is the end product of carboxypeptidase? A carboxypeptidase (EC number 3.4. 16 - 3.4. 18) is a protease enzyme that hydrolyzes (cleaves) a peptide bond at the carboxy-terminal (C-terminal) end of a protein or peptide. This is in contrast to an...
