| Organism: | Rattus norvegicus (Rat). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Rattus. | |
| Function: | This protein has both trypsin- and chymotrypsin-like activities, being able to release angiotensin II from angiotensin I or angiotensinogen. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=Preferential cleavage of Arg-|-Xaa bonds in small molecule substrates. Highly selective action to release kallidin (lysyl- bradykinin) from kininogen involves hydrolysis of Met-|-Xaa or Leu-|- Xaa.; EC=3.4.21.35; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Note=Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.; | |
| Subunit: | Monomer. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Found in submaxillary gland. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Kallikrein subfamily. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00274}. | |
