| leukocyte elastase |
[EC 3.4.21.37] a serine endopeptidase that is secreted by certain leukocytes and catalyzes the hydrolysis of proteins, including elastin, and is inhibited by alpha1-antitrypsin. Emphysema resulting from damage to lung tissue by leukocyte elastase occurs in alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency. Called also neutrophil elastase.
