This is something we'd love to include later, but in the meantime you can use some [map functions](https://neo4j-contrib.github.io/neo4j-apoc-procedures/#map-functions) from [APOC Procedures](https://neo4j-contrib.github.io/neo4j-apoc-procedures/) for a workaround:

```auto
MATCH (n:Node)
RETURN apoc.map.removeKey(n {.*}, 'specific') as propsWithoutKey

```
