Glutamate carboxypeptidase (EC 3.4.17.11, carboxypeptidase G, carboxypeptidase G1, carboxypeptidase G2, glutamyl carboxypeptidase, N-pteroyl-L-glutamate hydrolase) is an enzyme.[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

Release of C-terminal glutamate residues from a wide range of N-acylating moieties, including peptidyl, aminoacyl, benzoyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, folyl and pteroyl groups

This zinc enzyme is produced by pseudomonads, Flavobacterium sp. and Acinetobacter sp.
