| Name |
calpain-1;
mu-calpain;
calcium-activated neutral protease I
|
| Class |
Hydrolases;
Acting on peptide bonds (peptidases);
Cysteine endopeptidases
 |
| Reaction(IUBMB) |
Broad endopeptidase specificity
|
| Comment |
In peptidase family C2. Requires Ca2+ at micromolar concentrations for activity. Cytosolic in animal cells. The active enzyme molecule is a heterodimer in which the large subunit contains the peptidase unit, and the small subunit is also a component of EC 3.4.22.53, calpain-2.
