    GlossaryLegumain

    enzyme that breaks down proteins in acidic cell environments

    Legumain is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in breaking down proteins within cells. It is particularly active in acidic environments, such as those found in lysosomes, and is involved in various biological processes, including immune response and tissue remodeling. For professionals, it's noteworthy that legumain is an asparaginyl endopeptidase, which means it specifically cleaves peptide bonds at asparagine residues.
