Abstract
The main enzymatic coagulants substituents of conventional rennet, used in the dairy industry, are like proteases. These enzymes act on proteolytic activity, cleaving peptides in proteins and peptides. Aspartic proteases (EC 3.4.23) are enzymes which have the function of specifically hydrolyzing the º-casein peptide bond between the amino acids Phe105-Met106 releasing para-º-casein and gl…
