Catalysis of the hydrolysis of peptide bonds formed between L-amino acids. Catalysis of the hydrolysis of internal, alpha-peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain. Catalysis of the hydrolysis of peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a mechanism in which a water molecule bound by the side chains of aspartic residues at the active center acts as a nucleophile. Catalysis of the hydrolysis of internal, alpha-peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain by a mechanism in which a water molecule bound by the side chains of aspartic residues at the active center acts as a nucleophile. Catalysis of the hydrolysis of nonterminal peptide bonds in a polypeptide chain, occurring within the plasma membrane.
