HPLC analysis of Ala-Ala-p-nitroanilide degradation by the two PhTET1 oligomers shows that the generation of Ala-4-nitroanilide is not linear with time, suggesting product inhibition. PhTET1 can cleave the N-terminal amino acid of larger peptides, even when the 4-nitroanilide moiety is in the C-terminal position, and can also hydrolyze dipeptides like Ala-Ala or Asp-Ala. Therefore, PhTET1 seems to be unable to cleave a peptidic bond when 4-nitroanilide or 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin is in the P1' position, making activity assays difficult. Activity of the dodecamer enzyme form increases with substrate chain length.
