The invention relates to the enzymatic treatment of a proteinaceous substrate with a first enzyme, such as a sulfhydryl oxidase. The first enzyme removes enzyme inhibitors, such as free thiols, present in the proteinaceous substrate. The removal of the inhibitory compounds in the substrate allows fo...
