FunFam 6073: Glutamate carboxypeptidase

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Glutamate carboxypeptidase. [EC: 3.4.17.11]
Release of C-terminal glutamate residues from a wide range of N-acylating moieties, including peptidyl, aminoacyl, benzoyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, folyl and pteroyl groups.
  • Produced by pseudomonads, Flavobacterium sp. and Acinetobacter sp.
  • Its ability to hydrolyze pteroyl-L-glutamate (folic acid) has led to its use as a folate-depleting, antitumor agent.
  • Belongs to peptidase family M20A.
