Abstract excerpt
Lactococcus lactis possesses a complex proteolytic system which is essential for its growth in milk. We characterized one of the peptidases of this system, oligopeptidase PepF, together with its structural gene. PepF hydrolyzed peptides containing between 7 and 17 amino acids with a rather wide s...
