Protein
Aspartyl aminopeptidase 4
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c)
Function
Aspartyl aminopeptidase that contributes to peptide degradation both in the cytosol and the vacuole. Cells may respond to environmental conditions by changing the distributions of the cytosolic enzyme to the vacuole when cells need more active vacuolar degradation.
Similarity
Belongs to the peptidase M18 family.
