Function
Has a strict specificity for hydrolysis of asparaginyl bonds. Can also cleave aspartyl bonds slowly, especially under acidic conditions. Involved in the processing of proteins for MHC class II antigen presentation in the lysosomal/endosomal system.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Lysosome
Tissue Specificity: Ubiquitous. Particularly abundant in kidney, heart and placenta
