Function and Biology

Aspartyl Dipeptidase

Source organism: Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium
Biochemical function: dipeptidase activity
Biological process: proteolysis
Cellular component: cytoplasm

EC 3.4.13.21: Dipeptidase E

Reaction catalysed:
Dipeptidase E catalyzes the hydrolysis of dipeptides Asp-|-Xaa. It does not act on peptides with N-terminal Glu, Asn or Gln, nor does it cleave isoaspartyl peptides.
Alternative Name(s):
  • Aspartyl dipeptidase
  • PepE gene product (Salmonella typhimurium)
  • Peptidase E
