Description
The enzyme (29 KD) aeromonas aminopeptidase is used in the processing of pharmaceutical proteins produced by genetic engineering as well as for physical and structural investigations and for sequence and amino-terminal determinations. This exopeptidase recognizes a specific stop sign at -X- Pro and requires a free a-amino group in the L-configuration. It is therefore suitable for the removal of the redundant N-terminal methionine often added to engineered proteins.
