Hui KS. Brain-specific aminopeptidase: from enkephalinase to protector against neurodegeneration. Neurochem Res. 2007 Dec;32(12):2062-71. PubMed Abstract
RELATED PAPERSA genomic screen for modifiers of tauopathy identifies puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase as an inhibitor of tau-induced neurodegeneration.Puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase is the major peptidase responsible for digesting polyglutamine sequences released by proteasomes during protein degradation.
