Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Lactobacillus gasseri is well-known as a species of probiotic lactic acid bacteria resident in human small intestine. However, the usability of Lb. gasseri as a fermentation starter was limited, because of its indefinite auxotrophy. In this study, we first revealed that Lb. gasseri requires peptides for growth, and that the peptide requirement would be caused by low activity of cell-envelope proteinases of Lb. gasseri. Next, we developed new two methods for milk fermentation using Lb. gasseri without any supplementation of peptides. In a method, fermentation was achieved after hydrolysis of milk proteins using food-grade proteinases particularly pepsin. In another, cocultivation with selected coccal strains of lactic acid bacteria was used. In addition, it was found that Lb. gasseri can assimilate endogenous peptides such as pepsinolytic hydrolysates of gastric mucin, as well as exogenous peptides generated from orally ingested food proteins.
