'''D-aminoacylase''' (DAA) hydrolyzes N-acyl neutral D-amino acids. DAA was found in different genera of bacteria: ''Pseudomonas'', ''Streptomyces'' and ''Alcaligenes''. Each genera has a different substrate preference. DAA from ''Alcaligenes faecalis'' (AfDAA) shows preference for D-Met, D-Phe and D-Leu and lesser effectivity for D-Trp, D-Ala and D-val. AfDAA is a zinc-assisted enzyme. <ref>PMID:14736882</ref>
