A novel enzyme, which was named N^α-benzyloxycarbonyl amino acid urethane hydrolase II, was purified from a cell-free extract of Lactobacillus fermenti 36 ATCC 9338. The enzyme catalyzed the stoichiometric hydrolysis of N^α-benzyloxycarbonyl arginine to form benzyl alcohol and arginine. The enzyme was purified 106-fold with an activity yield of 3%. The purified enzyme was homogeneous by disc gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight of the native enzyme is about 200,000 by gel filtration, and a molecular weight of 27,000 was found for the reduced and denaturated enzyme by gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was 5.0, it was inhibited by disodium ethylenediamine tetraacetate and p-chloromercuribenzoate, and the presence of a divalent cation, i.e. Co^<2+>, is essential for its activity.
