Abstract:
:Activity of purified alanylaminopeptidase of Pseudomonas sp. measured in the presence of the alanine derivative of 2-naphthoic acid (NA-Ala) is inhibited by 1,10-phenanthroline, EDTA, bestatin and amastatin; this finding supports the conclusion that this enzyme is a metallo-aminopeptidase. A decrease of its activity in the presence of iodoacetamide and its activation by thiols points to the significant role of -SH groups in the regulation of its activity. Co2+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions increased the enzyme activity while Zn2+, Cd2+ and Pb2+ markedly inhibited the enzyme even at low concentrations. A high thermal stability of alanylaminopeptidase depended on the presence of 1 mmol/L Co2+ and of 1 mmol/L L-cysteine in the incubation mixture.
