Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityHydrolysis of proteins, including elastin, by preferential cleavage: -Ala-|-Xaa- > -Val-|-Xaa-. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7897245}.
FunctionPolymorphonuclear leukocyte serine protease that degrades elastin, fibronectin, laminin, vitronectin, and collagen types I, III, and IV (in vitro) and causes emphysema when administered by tracheal insufflation to hamsters.
