Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1987
During the ripening of Gouda-type cheese, two kinds of endopeptidases were found to participate in the degradation of αs1-CN(f1-23), a specific product from αs1-casein hydrolyzed by chymosin. One of the endopeptidases, lactic acid bacteria endopeptidase (LEP-II), which can recognize the size of its substrates, has already been purified and
