This enzyme, called also kidney brush-border neutral proteinase and being referred to as neprilysin, is a neutral endopeptidase that has been isolated rabbit kidneys (Kerr and Kenny, 1974). It is enriched in kidney brush border and kidney microvillar fractions (George and Kenny, 1973; Booth and Kenny, 1974). The enzyme is identical with enkephalinase (EC 3.4.24.11) (Malfroy and Schwartz, 1984). In the nomenclature of CD antigens the enzyme has been given the designation CD10.
