| Official Name |
| Pancreatic elastase II.
|
| Reaction catalysed |
| Preferential cleavage: Leu-|-Xaa, Met-|-Xaa and Phe-|-Xaa. Hydrolyzes elastin |
| Comment(s) |
- Formed by activation of proelastase II from mammalian pancreas by
trypsin.
- Usually, only one of the pancreatic elastases (see also EC 3.4.21.36)
