Delta VPE (Vacuplar-Processing Enzyme delta-isozyme) is Asparagine specific endopeptidase that may be involved in processing of proteins targeted to vacuoles (By similarity). The enzyme is probably involved in post-translational proteolysis of seed storage proteins in the protein storage vacuole of developing seeds (PubMed:12417707, PubMed:14688293). Exhibits a caspase-1-like activity in extracellular granules. At the early stage of seed development, required for the formation of the seed coat, by regulating cell death of specific cell layers in inner integument (Nakaune et al. 2005).
