1. Aminopeptidase C was purified from porcine skeletal muscle. 2. The mol. wt of the enzyme was found to be 103,000 on both Sephadex G-200 column chromatography and SDS-PAGE. 3. The optimum pH for the hydrolysis of L-leucine p-nitroanilide was around 7.0. 4. The activity of this enzyme was strongly inhibited by EDTA, bestatin and puromycin. 5. The enzyme acted on the beta-naphthylamide derivatives of amino acids and oligopeptides.
