Aminopeptidases of Bacillus subtilis [PDF]
, 1975 The production of aminopeptidases, intracellularly or extracellularly, by many bacterial species has been noted (4, 5, 28). In the genus Bacillus, Aubert and Millet (2) reported an aminopeptidase in cells of _B.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023 We have previously demonstrated that deletion of an intracellular leucine aminopeptidase results in attenuated virulence of S. aureus. Herein we explore the role of 10 other aminopeptidases in S. aureus pathogenesis. Using a human blood survival assay we
