KEGG   ENZYME: 3.4.23.32
Entry
EC 3.4.23.32                Enzyme                                 
Name
scytalidopepsin B;
Scytalidium aspartic proteinase B;
Ganoderma lucidum carboxyl proteinase;
Ganoderma lucidum aspartic proteinase;
Scytalidium lignicolum aspartic proteinase B;
SLB
Class
Hydrolases;
Acting on peptide bonds (peptidases);
Aspartic endopeptidases
Reaction(IUBMB)
Hydrolysis of proteins with broad specificity, cleaving Phe24!Phe, but not Leu15-Tyr and Phe25-Tyr in the B chain of insulin
Comment
A second endopeptidase from Scytalidium lignicolum (see scytalidopepsin A) that is insensitive to pepstatin and methyl 2-diazoacetamidohexanoate. 1,2-Epoxy-3-(p-nitrophenoxy)propane reacts with Glu53, which replaces one of the aspartic residues at the active centre. One of the smallest aspartic endopeptidases active as the monomer, with Mr 22,000. Similarly inhibitor-resistant endopeptidases are found in the basidiomycetes Lentinus edodes [1] and Ganoderma lucidum [3], and in Polyporus tulipiferae [4], a second endopeptidase distinct from polyporopepsin, but these are of typical aspartic endopeptidase size, Mr about 36,000. Type example of peptidase family G1.
