Beschreibung

2-(Carbamoylamino)-4-methylpentanoic acid is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of l-amino acids. It has a broad substrate specificity and is able to hydrolyze branched-chain and n-substituted l-amino acids, as well as D-amino acids. The active site of this enzyme includes a zinc ion coordinated by four amino acid residues, which are important for the stereoselective catalysis of these reactions. This enzyme also displays stereoselectivity in its reactions with L-amino acids over D-amino acids. The crystal structure of 2-(carbamoylamino)-4-methylpentanoic acid reveals that it belongs to the family of dipeptidases, whose members have a beta barrel fold common to many enzymes in this class.
