Nodavirus endopeptidase (EC 3.4.23.44, Black Beetle virus endopeptidase, Flock House virus endopeptidase) is an enzyme.[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

Hydrolysis of an asparaginyl bond involved in the maturation of the structural protein of the virus, typically -Asn-Ala- or -Asn-Phe-

The enzyme is coded by several nodaviruses that are insect pathogens.
