Purification and Characterization of a Novel Extracellular Haloprotease Vpr from Bacillus licheniformis Strain KB111.

ABSTRACT:

Research background

Haloalkaline proteases are one of the most interesting types of commercial enzymes in various industries due to their high specific activity and stability under extreme conditions. Biochemical characterization of enzymes is an important requirement for determining their potential for application in industrial fields. Most of microbial proteases have been isolated from Bacillus spp. In this study, the purification and characterization of an extracellular haloprotease produced from Bacillus sp. KB111 strain, which was previously isolated from mangrove forest sediments, are investigated for industrial applications.

Experimental approach

The whole genome of KB111 strain was identified by DNA sequencing. Its produced protease was purified by salt
