[Proteases of the large intestine].
The large intestine was found to reveal an obvious activity of various aminopeptidases and genuine dipeptidases in dogs and in humans. A dipeptidase was found specific by its independence of the C-terminal configuration of the peptide. This peptidase in an intrinsic membrane protein. Physiological significance of these enzymes is discussed.
