Altered Specificity of Lactococcal Proteinase P I (Lactocepin I) in Humectant Systems Reflecting the Water Activity and Salt Content of Cheddar Cheese
Open accessAbstract
By using various humectant systems, the specificity of hydrolysis of α s1 -, β-, and κ-caseins by the cell envelope-associated proteinase (lactocepin; EC 3.4.21.96 ) with type P 1 specificity (i.e., lactocepin I) from Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis BN1 was investigated at water activities (a w ) and salt concentrations reflecting those in cheddar type cheese. In the presence of polyethylene glycol 20000 (PEG 20000)-NaCl (a w = 0.95), hydrolysis of β-casein resulted in production of the peptides comprising residues 1 to 6 and 47 to 52, which are characteristic of type P III enzyme activity (lactocepin III) in buffer. The fragment comprising residues 1 through 166, inclusive (fragment 1-166), which is typical of lactocepin I activity in buffer systems, was not produced. Similarly, peptide 152-160 from κ-casein, which is usually produced in aqueous buffers exclusively by lactocepin III, was a major product of lactocepin I. Most of the specificity differences obtained in the presence of PEG 20000-NaCl were also obtained in the presence of PEG 20000 alone (a w = 0.99). In addition, α s1 -casein, which normally is resistant to lactocepin I activity, was rapidly hydrolyzed in the presence of PEG 20000 alone. Hydrolysis of casein in the presence of PEG 300-NaCl or glycerol-NaCl (both having an a w of 0.95) was generally as expected for lactocepin I activity except that β-casein peptide 47-52 and κ-casein fragment 1-160 were produced; both of these are normally formed by lactocepin III in buffer. The differences in lactocepin specificity obtained in the humectant systems can be attributed to a combination of a w and humectant hydrophobicity, both of which are parameters that are potentially relevant to the cheese-ripening environment.

Concerning L. lactis, three surface proteins are attributed to the CWAP group: the chromosomally-encoded sex factor CluA, the plasmid-encoded proteinase NisP, and the plasmid-encoded cell serine proteinase PrtP.
“Concerning L. lactis, three surface proteins were attributed to the same group of CWAP: i) the chromosomally-encoded sex factor CluA [22], ii) the plasmid-encoded proteinase NisP [23], and iii) the plasmid-encoded cell serine proteinase PrtP (also called lactocepin [24], which initiates proteolytic degradation of milk casein [25]).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
