A synthesized peptide derived from human CD10 CD10 is a transmembrane type II molecule and functions as a metallo-peptidase requiring zinc. Specifically, CD10 cleaves 1-3 amino-terminal amino acids from peptides with a preference for neutral amino acids (valine, iso-leucine, phenylalanine, leucine or alanine) . Involved in the degradation of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) .

Thermolysin-like specificity, but is almost confined on acting on polypeptides of up to 30 amino acids (PubMed:15283675, PubMed:8168535) . Biologically important in the destruction of opioid peptides such as Met- and Leu-enkephalins by cleavage of a Gly-Phe bond (PubMed:17101991) . Able to cleave angiotensin-1, angiotensin-2 and angiotensin 1-9 (PubMed:15283675) . Involved in the degradation of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) (PubMed:2531377, PubMed:2972276) . Displays UV-inducible elastase activity toward skin preelastic and elastic fibers (PubMed:20876573) . .
