Carboxypeptidase C.
based on mapping to UniProt P10619
Release of a C-terminal amino acid with broad specificity.
-!- Carboxypeptidases of broad specificity with optimum pH 4.5-6.0, inhibited by the action of diisopropyl fluorophosphate, and sensitive to thiol-blocking reagents. -!- This enzyme is probably also identical to lysosomal tyrosine carboxypeptidase. -!- Belongs to peptidase family S10. -!- Formerly EC 3.4.12.1, EC 3.4.12.12, EC 3.4.16.1, EC 3.4.16.3 and EC 3.4.21.13.
