leucine aminopeptidase; leucyl peptidase; peptidase S; cytosol aminopeptidase; cathepsin III; L-leucine aminopeptidase; leucinaminopeptidase; leucinamide aminopeptidase; FTBL proteins; proteinates FTBL; aminopeptidase II; aminopeptidase III; aminopeptidase I
Reaction
Release of an N-terminal amino acid, Xaa┼Yaa-, in which Xaa is preferably Leu, but may be other amino acids including Pro although not Arg or Lys, and Yaa may be Pro. Amino acid amides and methyl esters are also readily hydrolysed, but rates on arylamides are exceedingly low
