Structural highlights
Function
IAAA_ECOLI Degrades proteins damaged by L-isoaspartyl residue formation (also known as beta-Asp residues). Degrades L-isoaspartyl-containing di- and maybe also tripeptides. Also has L-asparaginase activity, although this may not be its principal function.[1] May be involved in glutathione, and possibly other peptide, transport, although these results could also be due to polar effects of disruption.[2]
