Carboxypeptidase C (EC 3.4.16.5, carboxypeptidase Y, serine carboxypeptidase I, cathepsin A, lysosomal protective protein, deamidase, lysosomal carboxypeptidase A, phaseolin) is an enzyme.[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

Release of a C-terminal amino acid with broad specificity

This enzyme is a carboxypeptidase with optimum activity at pH 4.5-6.0. It is inhibited by diisopropyl fluorophosphate.
