Cytosolic non-specific dipeptidase

UniProtKB accession:  Q9D1A2

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Catalyzes the peptide bond hydrolysis in dipeptides, displaying a non-redundant activity toward threonyl dipeptides (PubMed:31587987). Mediates threonyl dipeptide catabolism in a tissue-specific way (PubMed:31587987). Has high dipeptidase activity toward cysteinylglycine, an intermediate metabolite in glutathione metabolism (By similarity). Metabolizes N-lactoyl-amino acids, both through hydrolysis to form lactic acid and amino acids, as well as through their formation by reverse proteolysis (By similarity). Plays a role in the regulation of cell cycle arrest and apoptosis (By similarity).
