Abstract
The present invention describes an aspartic protease produced by a fungus from the class Eurotiomycetes, comprising the amino acid sequence of FDTGSSD or FDTGSSE. The present invention further provides a process for identifying new milk clotting enzymes comprising screening an amino acid sequence for the presence of FDTGSSD or FDTGSSE. The enzymes of the invention may he useful in cheese production.
