Current interest in the intestinal peptidases is centred round two main topics: (1) their role in the digestion of dietary protein and (2) investigation of Fraser's hypothesis that coeliac disease is due to a congenital deficiency of the peptidase(s) which normally digest gluten. This report will consider these topics and also briefly review recent studies on a lysosomal peptidase concerned with the digestion of dietary folate.
