Human intestinal alanine aminopeptidase was purified to greater than 90% homogeneity. The enzyme was released from mucosal cell membranes by Triton X-100 treatment. The native enzyme had a MW of 206,000 in dilute buffer and 108,000 in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The enzyme was inhibited by chelators suggesting the presence of a metal ion in the enzyme. The most potent chelator inhibitor tested, o-phenanthroline, gave mixed kinetics (Ki = 67 .mu.M). Activity was restored by removal of the chelator. The enzyme was inhibited competitively by amino acids having hydrophobic side chains such as L-phenylalanine (Ki = 0.67 mM). Puromycin and methicillin also inhibited the enzyme in the competitive (Ki = 12.5 mM) and noncompetitive (Ki = 4.6 mM) manner, respectively. Kinetic analysis of several amino acid .beta.-naphthylamides as substrates demonstrated the preference for substrates having hydrophobic or basic amino terminal residues with no .beta.-branching. L-Methionyl-.beta.-naphtyylamide was the most tightly bound while L-alanyl-.beta.-naphthylamide was the most rapidly hydrolyzed.
