Aminopeptidases

M1 aminopeptidases are thought to remove amino acids from proteins, thereby either activating or deactivating those proteins. ❋ Unknown (2010)

It has been shown that aminopeptidases in the endoplasmic reticulum that process antigenic precursors generated by proteasomal degradation, thus generating peptides suitable for presentation by MHC class I molecules, fail to trim prolines that flank the NH2-termini of these precursors ❋ Jacqueline Schmuckli-Maurer Et Al.

Since most of the proteins in our analysis were found to be arginylated on the residues internal to the initiator Met, it is clear that for such proteins arginylation involves preceding cleavage by proteases or multiple aminopeptidases, or occurs on the side chains, where chemically possible. ❋ Unknown (2008)
