Abstract
The subcellular localization and properties of enzymes involved in processing of neuropeptide precursors and in inactivation of active peptide forms are considered. It is concluded that the role of proteolytic enzymes in neuropeptide metabolism is determined by their subcellular localization and substrate specificity.
