Gly-X carboxypeptidase

Gly-Xaa carboxypeptidase (, glycine carboxypeptidase, carboxypeptidase a, carboxypeptidase S, peptidase alpha, yeast carboxypeptidase) is an enzyme. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * Release of a C-terminal amino acid from a peptide in which glycine is the penultimate amino acid, e.g. Z-Gly!Leu

This enzyme is isolated from yeast.
