The present invention relates to new improved peptides and dimeric peptides exhibiting beta-galactosidase enzyme activity as well as methods using them for reducing the lactose content of milk-based compositions.

Lactase enzymes with improved properties

The present invention relates to new improved peptide or dimeric peptides exhibiting beta-galactosidase enzyme activity as well as improved methods for reducing the lactose content in compositions in particular at low temperatures.

Lactase enzymes with improved activity at low temperatures

Disclosed are peptides exhibiting betagalactosidase enzyme activity as well as dairy products comprising them and related methods for reducing the lactose content in compositions, such as dairy products.

Disclosed are peptides and dimeric peptides exhibiting beta-galactosidase enzyme activity, as well as methods for producing a dairy product using them, and dairy products made by such methods. In some embodiments, the peptides exhibit beta-galactosidase enzyme activity at low and/or high temperatures.

Disclosed is Bacterium of the speciesCHCC15860 as deposited with the German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures (DSMZ) under accession No. DSM32092. Also disclosed are compositions comprising the bacterium, methods for producing fermented milk products using the bacterium and the products thus obtained.
