Box 5036 Agricultural University of Norway, N-1432 Âs, Norway Abstract - Although propionic acid bacteria dominate Swiss-type cheeses, with populations reach- ing -109 colony forming units per g of cheese after the warm room ripening period, their role in proteolysis is far from being as weil established as that of the lactic acid bacteria. This review will focus on the localization and biochemical characteristics of the peptidases of dairy propionic acid bacteria. Using peptide substrates related to those encountered in cheese and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry analysis, the action of carboxypeptidase(s) in addition to that of aminopeptidase(s), X-prolyl dipeptidyl aminopeptidase and endopeptidase(s) are c1early shown. Finally, the potential role of the propionic acid bacteria in Swiss-type chee se proteolysis is discussed. © InralElsevier, Paris. propionic acid bacteria / proteolysis / peptidase / Swiss-type cheese / ripening Résumé - Les peptidases des bactéries propioniques. Bien que les bactéries propioniques repré- sentent une flore dominante des fromages à pâte pressée cuite, avec une population pouvant atteindre environ 109 unités formant colonie par gramme de fromage pendant l'affinage en cave chaude, leur rôle dans la protéolyse au cours de l'affinage est encore loin d'être établi comparativement à celui des bactéries lactiques. Cette revue est consacrée aux peptidases des bactéries propioniques, à leur loca- lisation et à leurs caractéristiques biochimiques. L'utilisation de substrats peptidiques proches de ceux rencontrés dans le fromage et l'identification par spectrométrie de masse à source d'ionisation electrospray des produits issus de l'hydrolyse, par les peptidases de quatre souches de bactéries pro- pioniques, nous a permis de montrer clairement l'action de carboxypeptidase(s), en complément de celles d'aminopeptidase(s), X-prolyl dipeptidyl aminopeptidase et endopeptidase(s). Enfin, nous discuterons le rôle potentiel des bactéries propioniques dans la protéolyse des fromages à pâte pres- sée cuite. © InralElsevier, Paris. bactérie propionique / protéolyse / peptidase / fromage à pâte pressée cuite / affinage Oral communication at the 2nd Symposium on Propionibacteria, Cork, Ireland, June 25-27, 1998. * Correspondence and reprints.
