It is however an unusual enzyme that does not behave like other proteases; it does not use hydrolysis to achieve bond breakage, instead the asparagine forms a cyclic chemical structure that can cleave itself at asparagine residues in proteins under the right conditions.
It is however an unusual enzyme that does not behave like other proteases; it is a proteolytic enzymes but belong to a different enzyme class, and its inclusion as a peptidase may be debatable. It does not use hydrolysis to achieve bond breakage, instead the asparagine forms a cyclic chemical structure that can cleave itself at asparagine residues in proteins under the right conditions.
