Comments
This enzyme belongs to peptidase family-S1.
Since this enzyme has got the same catalytic site as trypsin, it must catalyze the trypsin-like reaction.
This enzyme is stored in the cytotoxic granules of cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells, and induces cell death (see [2], [5] and [7]).
