Function
NEPRN_NEPVE Glutamic endopeptidase that preferentially cleaves peptide bonds on the C-terminal side of proline residues (PubMed:27481162, PubMed:28404794, PubMed:35915115). Also cleaves peptide bonds on the C-terminal side of alanine residues but with less efficiency (PubMed:28404794). In contrast to most proline-cleaving enzymes, effectively degrades proteins of any size (PubMed:28404794). Found in the viscoelastic fluid of the pitcher, and so likely functions in the digestion of their prey (PubMed:27481162).[1] [2] [3]
