The peptidase activity obtained using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) showed the presence of peptidases from S. muris with a wide range of molecular size (25–110 kDa), which degrades gelatin and mucin at alkaline pH levels. P. ambiguus released serine and aspartyl peptidases degrading gelatin at all tested pH (3, 5, 7, and 9) and at acidic pH Passalurus released aspartyl and cysteine peptidases which are active against mucin Workplace Institute of Physiology Contact Lucie Trajhanová, lucie.trajhanova@fgu.cas.cz, Tel.: 241 062 400 Year of Publishing 2011
