The enzyme had a molecular weight of 65,000 and its isoelectric point was 4.0. Optimum pH was found at 7.0. The enzyme was quite labile over 40℃. It was sensitive to inhibition by diisopropylfluorophosphate, phenylmethane sulfonylfluoride, or tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone. Inhibition by urea was also obvious and this inhibition was found to be irreversible. Ca^<2+>, Mg^<2+>, Mn^<2+> or Co^<2+> had no no effect on the activity. Leucine-P-nitroanilide was the most suitable substrate among the tested synthetic substrates.}, pages = {130--135}, title = {Purification and Partial Characterization of Leucine Aminopeptidase from Actinomyces viscosus}, volume = {10}, year = {1984} }
