Description

MeOSuc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Ala-chloromethylketone is a peptidyl substrate for the enzyme carboxypeptidase A. This substrate has a high specificity for carboxypeptidase A and does not bind to other enzymes such as carboxypeptidase B, D, or L. The hydrophobic nature of this substrate has been shown in both hamsters and macaques. MeOSuc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Ala-chloromethylketone also shows cardiovascular effects in both animal models. It is possible that this effect is due to the proteolytic activity of the enzyme. More research needs to be done to identify the sequence of this peptide and how it may affect humans.
