ENTRY EC 3.4.24.42
NAME Atrolysin C
Crotalus atrox metalloendopeptidase C
Hemorrhagic tosin c and d
CLASS Hydrolases
Acting on peptide bonds (peptidases)
Metalloendopeptidases
REACTION Cleavage of His5+Leu, His10+Leu, Ala14+Leu, Tyr16+Leu and
Gly23+Phe bonds in B chain of insulin. With small molecule
substrates prefers hydrophobic residue at P2' and small residue
such as Ala, Gly at P1

INHIBITOR Phosphoramidon
COMMENT A 24 kDa hemorrhagic endopeptidase from the venom of the western
diamondback rattlesnake (Crotalus atrox) that digests type IV
collagen, and exists as two forms, c and d. Phosphoramidon
inhibits in the 0.1 mM range. The complete amino acid sequence of
form d is known. Hemorrhagic toxin-2 of C. ruber ruber has the
same Mr and specificity and is a homologue.
