aminopeptidase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the hydrolysis of a single N-terminal amino acid residue from a polypeptide chain. [https://www.ebi.ac.uk/merops/about/glossary.shtml#AMINOPEPTIDASE, PMID:24157837]
metallopeptidase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the hydrolysis of peptide bonds by a mechanism in which water acts as a nucleophile, one or two metal ions hold the water molecule in place, and charged amino acid side chains are ligands for the metal ions. [GOC:mah, https://www.ebi.ac.uk/merops/about/glossary.shtml#CATTYPE]

TargetCategoryDefinition
extracellular spacecellular componentThat part of a multicellular organism outside the cells proper, usually taken to be outside the plasma membranes, and occupied by fluid. [ISBN:0198547684]
lysosomal membranecellular componentThe lipid bilayer surrounding the lysosome and separating its contents from the cell cytoplasm. [GOC:ai]
endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartmentcellular componentA complex system of membrane-bounded compartments located between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi complex, with a distinctive membrane protein composition; involved in ER-to-Golgi and Golgi-to-ER transport. [GOC:pr, PMID:16723730]
plasma membranecellular componentThe membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins. [ISBN:0716731363]
external side of plasma membranecellular componentThe leaflet of the plasma membrane that faces away from the cytoplasm and any proteins embedded or anchored in it or attached to its surface. [GOC:dos, GOC:tb]
secretory granule membranecellular componentThe lipid bilayer surrounding a secretory granule. [GOC:mah]

Involved In

This protein is involved in 5 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
angiogenesisbiological processBlood vessel formation when new vessels emerge from the proliferation of pre-existing blood vessels. [ISBN:0878932453]
cell differentiationbiological processThe cellular developmental process in which a relatively unspecialized cell, e.g. embryonic or regenerative cell, acquires specialized structural and/or functional features that characterize a specific cell. Differentiation includes the processes involved in commitment of a cell to a specific fate and its subsequent development to the mature state. [ISBN:0198506732]
symbiont entry into host cellbiological processThe process by which a symbiont breaches the plasma membrane or cell envelope and enters the host cell. The process ends when the symbiont or its genome is released into the host cell. [GOC:jl]
proteolysisbiological processThe hydrolysis of proteins into smaller polypeptides and/or amino acids by cleavage of their peptide bonds. [GOC:bf, GOC:mah]
peptide catabolic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of peptides, compounds of 2 or more (but usually less than 100) amino acids where the alpha carboxyl group of one is bound to the alpha amino group of another. [GOC:jl]
