Synonyms | MDP {ECO:0000303|PubMed:2303490}, RDP |
Function | Hydrolyzes a wide range of dipeptides including the conversion of leukotriene D4 to leukotriene E4 (PubMed:2303490, PubMed:6334084, PubMed:31442408, PubMed:32325220). Hydrolyzes cystinyl- bis-glycine (cys-bis-gly) formed during glutathione degradation (PubMed:32325220).

Background
DPEP1 (EC 3.4.13.11) is a kidney membrane enzyme thathydrolyzes a variety of dipeptides and is implicated in renalmetabolism of glutathione and its conjugates, e.g., leukotriene D4(Kozak and Tate, 1982 [PubMed 6122685]). DPEP1 is responsible forhydrolysis of the beta-lactam ring of antibiotics, such as penemand carbapenem (Campbell et al., 1984 [PubMed 6334084]). Earlier,beta-lactamase enzymes were thought to occur only in bacteria,where their probable function was in protecting the organismsagainst the action of beta-lactam antibiotics. These antibioticsexhibit selective toxicity against bacteria but virtual inertnessagainst many eukaryotic cells (Adachi et al., 1990 [PubMed2303490]).
