3.4.23.23
Mucorpepsin.
based on mapping to UniProt P09177
Hydrolysis of proteins, favoring hydrophobic residues at P1 and P1'. Clots milk. Does not accept Lys at P1, and hence does not activate trypsinogen.
-!- Isolated from the zygomycete fungi Mucor pusillus and M.miehei. -!- Belongs to peptidase family A1. -!- Formerly EC 3.4.4.17 and EC 3.4.23.6.
