Efficient Hydrolysis of Gluten-Derived Celiac Disease-Triggering Immunogenic Peptides by a Bacterial Serine Protease from <i>Burkholderia gladioli</i>

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by toxic peptides derived from incompletely digested glutens in the stomach. Peptidases that can digest the toxic peptides may formulate an oral enzyme therapy to improve the patients’ health condition. Bga1903 is a serine endopeptidase secreted by...
