  • Title: Inactivation of chemotactic peptides by aminopeptidase Ey from hen's (Gallus gallus domesticus) egg yolk.
    Author: Tanaka T, Ichishima E.
    Journal: Comp Biochem Physiol Biochem Mol Biol; 1994 Apr; 107(4):533-8. PubMed ID: 8205380.
    Abstract:
    Aminopeptidase Ey, purified from hen's (Gallus gallus domesticus) egg yolk, was studied for its specificity against N-blocked peptides. Only N-formylmethionyl peptides were hydrolyzed by the enzyme in the tested peptides. N-Formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMet-Leu-Phe) lost its chemotactic activity toward human neutrophil after incubation with aminopeptidase Ey.
