Abstract
This invention relates to a medicament or a dietary supplement comprising theaspergilloglutamic peptidase that is capable of hydrolyzing plant food allergens, and more particularly, alpha-amylase/trypsin inhibitors, thereby treating diseases due to an innate immune response in humans, and/or allowing to delay the onset of said diseases. The present invention relates to the discovery that theaspergilloglutamic peptidase is capable of hydrolyzing alpha-amylase/trypsin inhibitors that are present in wheat and related cereals said inhibitors being strong inducers of innate immune response. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for hydrolyzing alpha-amylase/trypsin inhibitors comprising incubating a composition for food consumption comprising alpha-amylase/trypsin inhibitors with theaspergilloglutamic peptidase, wherein the inhibitors are hydrolyzed. It also relates to an enzyme composition comprising theaspergilloglutamic peptidase and an additional enzyme, and to foodstuff comprising theaspergilloglutamic peptidase.
