Prolyl endopeptidases (PEPs) are a class of serine proteases which cleave peptide bonds on the c-terminal side of internal proline residues. Proline residues are often stable to proteases due to their unique structure and even PEPs require a trans peptide bond preceeding proline for hydrolysis to occur.
