EC 3.4.24.57

Accepted name: O-sialoglycoprotein endopeptidase

Reaction: Hydrolysis of O-sialoglycoproteins; cleaves -Arg31Asp- bond in glycophorin A. Does not cleave unglycosylated proteins, desialylated glycoproteins or glycoproteins that are only N-glycosylated

Other names: glycoprotease; glycophorin A proteinase; glycoproteinase; sialoglycoprotease; sialoglycoproteinase

Comments: An enzyme secreted by the bacterium Pasteurella haemolytica. Inhibited by EDTA (100 mM) and 1,10-phenanthroline. Type example of peptidase family M22
