Serine-Type D-Ala-D-Ala Carboxypeptidase

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: A carboxypeptidase that is specific for proteins that contain two ALANINE residues on their C-terminal. Enzymes in this class play an important role in bacterial CELL WALL biosynthesis.      Other names Transpeptidase, D-Alanyl-D-Alanine-Cleaving; Serine-Type Ala-Ala Carboxypeptidase; Serine Type D Ala D Ala Carboxypeptidases; Serine Type D Ala D Ala Carboxypeptidase; DD Peptidase; D-Ala-D-Ala Carboxypeptidases, Serine-Type; D-Ala-D-Ala Carboxypeptidase, Serine-Type; D Alanyl D Alanine Cleaving Transpeptidase; D Alanyl D Alanine Carboxypeptidase; D D Carboxypeptidase; Carboxypeptidases, Serine-Type D-Ala-D-Ala; Carboxypeptidase, Serine-Type D-Ala-D-Ala; Carboxypeptidase, Serine-Type Ala-Ala; Carboxypeptidase, D-D; Ala Ala Carboxypeptidase, Serine Type; Serine-Type D-Ala-D-Ala Carboxypeptidases; D-Alanyl-D-Alanine-Cleaving Transpeptidase; D-Alanyl-D-Alanine-Carboxypeptidase; Ala-Ala Carboxypeptidase, Serine-Type; DD-Peptidase
