Caseinolytic Specificity of Cardosin, an Aspartic Protease from the Cardoon Cynara cardunculus L.: Action on Bovine αs- and β-Casein and Comparison with Chymosin

The action of cardosin on bovine αs- and β-casein at 30 °C in 50 mM citrate buffer (pH 6.2) was studied. Peptides were isolated by reversed-phase HPLC on C18 columns and identified from their amino acid composition and N-terminal amino acid sequence. The relative susceptibility of peptide bonds clea...
