Over half of all biologically active peptides and peptide hormones are ฮฑ-amidated at their C-terminus, which is essential for their full biological activities. Amidation is accomplished through the sequential reaction of the two enzymes encoded by the single bifunctional, peptidylglycine ฮฑ-amidating
