Application
Carboxypeptidase G from Pseudomonas sp., or γ-Glutamyl hydrolase, has been used in a study to assess the role of the putidaredoxin COOH-terminus in P-450cam (cytochrome m) hydroxylations. Carboxypeptidase G from Pseudomonas sp. has also been used in a study to investigate the effects of nitric oxide on pemetrexed cytotoxicity via NO‑cGMP signaling in lung adenocarcinoma cells.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Carboxypeptidase G is a lysosomal, thiol-dependent protease, which progressively cleaves γ-glutamyl pteroyl poly-γ-glutamate yielding pteroyl-α-glutamate (folic acid) and free glutamate. It is considered highly specific for the γ-glutamyl bond, but not for the C-terminal amino acid of the leaving group. Molecular mass of this homodimer is approximately 90 kDa. The enzyme is activated by Zn2+ ions.
Physical form
Contains sodium acetate salt.
Preparation Note
Chromatographically purified
Solutions should be prepared fresh prior to use.
Other Notes
One unit will hydrolyze 1.0 μmole of L-glutamic acid from (+)amethopterin per min at pH 7.3 at 30 °C.

Human glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCPII) is a transmembrane metallopeptidase found mainly in the brain, small intestine, and prostate. In the brain, it cleaves N-acetyl-L-aspartyl-glutamate, liberating free glutamate. Inhibition of GCPII has been shown to be neuroprotective in models of stroke

Methylene hydroxylation by cytochrome P-450(cam) (cytochrome m) can be resolved into four distinct steps: substrate addition, m(o) --> m(os); reduction, m(os) --> m(rs); dioxygen addition, m(rs) --> m(O2) (rs); followed by a second putidaredoxin (Pseudomonas putida ferredoxin)-mediated reduction and product
