摘要
The substrate specificity of the partially purified acid protease in Nepenthes (nepenthesin) was studied by hydrolyzing several peptides of known structures. The results indicated that nepenthesin was predominantly specific to aspartic acid residue at its carboxyl side or at its amino side, and was apparently specific also to tyrosine and alanine residues at their carboxyl sides. The protease seemed to be an endopeptidase. © 1969 BY THE JOURNAL OF BIOCHEMISTRY.
