Crude concentrates of extracellular proteases from strains belonging to species within the genus Legionella were examined for their effect upon synthetic chromogenic tri- and tetrapeptides. For the species L. pneumophila, similar and reproducible substrate degradation patterns were found. Strains from the other Legionella species produced proteases with dissimilar proteolytic patterns, which were all distinct from those of the L. pneumophila proteases.
对嗜肺军团菌属内各菌种菌株的细胞外蛋白酶粗浓缩物进行了检测，以观察其对合成生色三肽和四肽的作用。对于嗜肺军团菌这一菌种，发现了相似且可重复的底物降解模式。其他军团菌菌种的菌株产生的蛋白酶具有不同的蛋白水解模式，这些模式均与嗜肺军团菌蛋白酶的模式不同。
