penicillin amidase (peptidase S45 family)  M-CSA #841

Penicillin acylase is a widely distributed enzyme among bacteria, yeast and fungi. It is used industrially in the production of 6-aminopenicillanic acid, the starting point for the synthesis of penicillins. In vivo it is thought to have a role in the use of aromatic compounds as carbon sources.
