EC Number 3.4.22.-
Enzyme Function FUNCTION: Cysteine protease that cleaves specifically after arginine or lysine residues. Does not cleave caspase-specific substrates. Plays a positive regulatory role in biotic and abiotic stress-induced programmed cell death. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15326173, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21209078, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21395887}.
