Endothiapepsin (EC 3.4.23.22, Endothia aspartic proteinase, Endothia acid proteinase, Endothia parasitica acid proteinase, Endothia parasitica aspartic proteinase) is an enzyme.[1][2][3][4][5][6] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- Hydrolysis of proteins with specificity similar to that of pepsin A; prefers hydrophobic residues at P1 and P1', but does not cleave Ala14-Leu in the B chain of insulin or Z-Glu-Tyr. Clots milk
This enzyme is isolated from the ascomycete Endothia parasitica.
