MeSH definition : Carboxypeptidases that are primarily found the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM that catalyze the
release of C-terminal amino acids. Carboxypeptidases A have little or no activity
for hydrolysis of C-terminal ASPARTIC ACID; GLUTAMIC ACID; ARGININE; LYSINE; or PROLINE.
This enzyme requires ZINC as a cofactor and was formerly listed as EC 3.4.2.1 and
EC 3.4.12.2.;
