endopeptidases and exopeptidases Flashcards
1
Q
what do endopeptidases break down and where
A
it starts to break down polypepdies in the middle
2
Q
what do they break down and what into
A
they break down polypeptides into shorter chains
3
Q
what od endopeptides never make
A
single amino acids
4
Q
endopeptidases have specific places they will work at specific amno acid combinations
A
5
Q
what aod exopeptidases do and where
A
they continue breaking down a ploypeptide at the end of it
6
Q
what bond does it work at and what does it create
A
the last peptide bond and it makes single amino acids
7
Q
what is its main job
A
penultimate bond creating
