Previously, the gene for a general dipeptidase (pepDA) was isolated from a gene bank of Lactobacillus helveticus CNRZ32. The pepDA gene consists of a 1,422-bp open reading frame which could encode a polypeptide of 53.5 kDa. No significant identity was found between the deduced amino acid sequence of the pepDA product and the sequence for other polypeptides reported in GenBank. Southern hybridization studies with a pepDA probe indicated that the nucleotide sequence for pepDA is not well conserved ...[more]
