  • Title: Proteases in human lenses and their possible significance.
    Author: Swanson AA, Davis RM, Meinhardt NC.
    Journal: Curr Eye Res; 1985 Jan; 4(1):43-8. PubMed ID: 2858361.
    Abstract:
    Proteases identified as exopeptidases including dipeptidyl II and III, phenylalanine, leucine, methionine, lysine and alanine aminopeptidases, and prolyl endopeptidase were found in extracts of human fetal lenses. Previous data from normal adult lenses were included for comparison. Except for prolyl endopeptidase and dipeptidyl peptidase II, all protease activities were lower in fetal lenses.
