  • Title: Substrate specificity of the cell envelope-located proteinase of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis NCDO 763.
    Author: Monnet V, Ley JP, Gonzàlez S.
    Journal: Int J Biochem; 1992 May; 24(5):707-18. PubMed ID: 1592148.
    Abstract:
    1. The specificity of the cell envelope-located proteinase of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis NCDO 763 towards caseins has been submitted to a statistical study. Positive and negative relations have been evidenced between several amino acids and positions P6 to P'2 of the cleaved bonds. 2. Fragment 1-23 of alpha s1 and oxidized B chain of insulin are well cleaved by the proteinase while CMP (fragment 106-169 of kappa-casein) is a poor substrate. 3. Comparison with other cell envelope-located proteinase has been done. The enzyme of the strain 763 hydrolyses alpha s1-casein and fragment 1-23 of alpha s1-casein as the enzyme of the strain Sk11 and beta-casein as the enzyme of the strain Wg2. 4. The specificity of these proteinases and the comparison of their amino acid sequences let us postulate a more complex substrate binding area for these lactococcal proteinases than for the subtilisin.
