Background: PGPEP-1

Pyroglutamyl peptidase-1 (PGPEP-1) is an omega peptidase which removes pyroglutamyl residues from the amino termini of peptides and proteins (1). It is a cytosolic cysteine peptidase that is expressed in most cell types (2). The enzyme requires a thiol‑reducing agent for activity (3). PGPEP-1 is potentially involved in the inactivation of biologically active peptides that possess an amino terminal pyroglutamyl group (3). Examples of such peptides include neurotensin, luteinizing hormone releasing hormone, and thyrotropin-releasing hormone. Human and mouse PGPEP-1 share 95% aa sequence identity.
