Abstract
Proteolytic activity at neutral pH can be demonstrated in extracts from beef spleen. This activity is completely due to an aminopeptidase — or a number of aminopeptides — which is able to hydrolyse proteins completely to amino acids. No evidence was found for the presence of endopeptidases active at neutral pH. The enzyme resembles to some extent swine kidney aminopeptides.Keywords
