[edit] Proteinase or peptidase

Please change the title to endoPROTEINASE. This is the official name.

Endoproteinase and endopeptidase are considered synonyms, and I am seeing the latter more frequently than the former. See for example J. Clin. Invest. 117:746–756 (2007). doi:10.1172/JCI26206. What is your citation for the "official" status of endoproteinase? ErikNilsson 23:56, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Official or not, endopeptidase is more commonly used than endoproteinase (just google it). That's what interesting in Wikipedia inclusion. Therefore, I say it remains what it is. Mikael Häggström 12:35, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
