Proteolytic Enzymes and Their Relation to Cheese Ripening and Flavor: An Overview

Open access
Visser, Servaas·1993·Journal of Dairy Science

Abstract

Proteolytic events taking place during cheese ripening are described, and the characteristics of the various proteolytic systems involved are reviewed.Some emphasis is placed on the proteolytic enzymes from starter bacteria because these, in particular, have been subjects of recent and current research.In cheese, the concerted action of residual milk-clotting enzyme, indigenous milk proteinases, and starter proteinases provides suitable substrates for the starter peptidases, which ultimately generate small peptides and free amino acids.Deviations from such a delicately balanced process may lead to deviations from the desired cheese texture and flavor.A bitter flavor defect may develop in the ripening cheese when the degradation of slowly accumulating bitter peptides by suitable peptidases is inhibited.Cheese flavor is thought to be mainly generated by the further, nonproteolytic conversion of amino acids via enzymic and nonenzymic reactions.

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.
