Application:
Aminopeptidase M, porcine kidney has been used:
to test and identify the peaks containing d-residue in the allatotropin-related peptide (ATRP)
to study its oxidative inactivation of enzyme activity, and to screen MIRA ingredients
for the proteolysis of isolevuglandins (IsoLGs) proteins
