Aminopeptidase I (EC 3.4.11.22, aminopeptidase III, aminopeptidase yscI, leucine aminopeptidase IV, yeast aminopeptidase I) is an enzyme.[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

Release of an N-terminal amino acid, preferably a neutral or hydrophobic one, from a polypeptide.

Aminoacyl-arylamides are poor substrates
