A novel protein deamidase having an activity of directly acting on a side chain amide group of an asparagine residue in a protein to form a side chain carboxyl group and release ammonia, a microorganism that produces the same, a gene encoding the same, a method for producing the same, and use of the same are provided. A bacterium classified into the class Actinobacteria is cultured to generate protein deamidase, and the enzyme is collected from culture.

The present invention relates to novel strains of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum as well as preparations and compositions, such as fermentation broths, protective cultures, final food or feed products comprising a strain of the species Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus in combination with a strain of the species Lactiplantibacillus plantarum. The present invention further relates to methods for the controlling of growth of a contaminant, such as yeast or mould by using these novel strains and combinations.

The present invention relates to a wild-type, non-engineered, microbial lipolytic enzyme with a higher specificity for short-chain fatty acids than for medium to long fatty acids, specially long fatty acids. This invention further relates to a process for preparing a food product, and to the use of the wild-type, non-engineered, microbial lipolytic enzyme.
