토양으로부터 pretease활성이 우수한 균주를 선별하여 형태학적, 생화학적 동정과정 및 16 rRNA염기서열 분석 등의 방법을 이용하여 Bacillus sp. DS-1으로 동정하였다. Bacillus sp. DS-1은 초기 배지의 pH가 7.0인 조건에서 정지기에서 가장 높은 활성을 나타내었다. Bacillus sp. DS-1으로부터 protease를 생산하기 위해 탄소원으로는 1% glucose, 질소원으로는 1% yeast extract를 첨가할 때 대조구와 비교하여 각각 20%와 30% 더 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. Bacillus sp. DS-1이 생산하는 protease의 최적활성은 55$^{\circ}C$와 pH 7.0이었다. 1 mM의 EDTA첨가에 의해 protease활성이 84%실활 되었고 이 결과로부터 Bacillus sp. DS-1의 상등액에 존재하는 주된 protease 활성은 metalloprotease임을 알 수 있었다.

The production and the characteristics of protease produced by Bacillus sp. SH-8 and Bacillus sp. SH-8M were investigated under the different pH conditions. Bacillus sp. SH-8 and Bacillus sp. SH-8M showed the maximum activity of protease at 60 hours(70 units/ml) AND 96 houre(50 units/ml) cultivation, respectively, under the alkaline condition(pH 10.2). However, Bacillus sp. SH-8M exhibited the maximum activities in 8 days cultivation at pH 6.9 and in 6 days cultivation at pH 7.7 Bacillus sp. SH-8M showed the protease activity at the pH change from alkaline to neutral condition, whereas Bacillus sp. SH-8 did not. In addition. all the enzymatic characteristics of protease produced by Bacillus sp. SH-8 and Bacillus sp. SH-8M were similar with the regardless of different pH conditions.

미생물에 의한 단백질 분해 효소인 protease생산에 있어 탄소원과 질소원의 영향은 매우 중요한 것으로 알려져 있다. Bacillus licheniformis에 의한 protease생산에 있어서 탄소원과 질소원의 영향을 규명하기 위해서 제한배지를 사용하여 회분식 배양을 수행하였다. 탄소원의 농도가 높을수록 그리고 질소원의 농도가 높을수록 Bacillus licheniformis의 성장은 촉진되나 proteased의 생합성 비율은 감소됨을 알았다. 또한 회분식 배양 결과로부터 탄소원과 질소원의 영향을 고려한 수학적 모델식을 제안하였으며 제안된 수학적 모델식을 사용하여 탄소원과 질소원을 적절히 공급하므로서 protease의 생산성을 증대시킬 수 있었다.

A bacterial strain KN, which highly produced a protease, was isolated from several soil samples and identified to to belong to the genus Bacillus. We selected mutant strain Bacillus sp. KN103N, which was hyperproducer of protease and was resistant to D-cyclowerine, from the strain KN by several steps of mutagenesis. Neutral protease productivity of mutant strain KN103N was about 55 times as much as that of the original strain KN. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity were 7.0 and 50$^{\circ}C$, respectively and the enzyme was relatively stable at pH6.0~8.0 and below 40$^{\circ}C$. The enzyme was inactivated by EDTA, but not by DFP. These results indicate that the enzyme from Bacillus sp. KN103N was a neutral (metallo-) protease.

An extracellular protease was identified from Bacillus subtilis KCCM 10257 by N-terminal sequencing and mass spectral analysis. The molecular mass of the extracellular protease was estimated to be 28 kDa by SDS-PAGE. Sequencing of the N-terminal of the protease revealed the sequence of A(G,S,R)QXVPYG(A)V(P,L)SQ. The N-terminal sequence exhibited close similarity to the sequence of other proteases from Bacillus sp. A mass list of the monoisotopic peaks in the MALDI-TOF spectrum was searched after peptide fragmentation of the protease. Six peptide sequences exhibiting monoisotopic masses of 1,276.61, 1,513.67, 1,652.81, 1,661.83, 1,252.61, and 1,033.46 were observed from the fragmented protease. These monisotopic masses corresponded to the lytic enzyme L27 from Bacillus subtilis 168, and the Mowse score was found to be 75. A doubly charged Top product (MS) at a m/z of 517.3 exhibiting a molecular mass of 1034.6 was further analyzed by de novo sequencing using a PE Sciex QSTAR Hybrid Quadropole-TOF (MS/MS) mass spectrometer. MS/MS spectra of the Top product (MS) at a m/z of 517.3 obtained from the fragmented peptide mixture of protease with Q-star contained the b-ion series of 114.2, 171.2, 286.2, 357.2, 504.2, 667.4, 830.1, and 887.1 and y-ion series of 147.5, 204.2, 367.2, 530.3, 677.4, 748.4, 863.4, and 920.5. The sequence of analyzed peptide ion was identified as LGDAFYYG from the b- and y-ion series by de novo sequencing and corresponded to the results from the MALDI-TOF spectrum. From these results the extracellular protease from Bacillus subtilis KCCM 10257 was successfully identified with the lytic enzyme L27 from Bacillus subtilis 168.

A thermophilic bacteria showing proteolytic activity against defatted soybean was isolated from soil. It was identified as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens based on its morphological and physiological characteristics. The Bacillus amyloliquefaciens NS 15-4 was cultivated at 50$\circ$C by rotary shaking in a medium containing defatted soybean. An extracellular protease from this strain was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange, and hydrophobic interaction chromatographies. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be approximately 30,000 by SDS-PAGE and the N-terminal amino acid sequence of the enzyme was turned out to be AQSVPYGISQIKAPA. The optimum temperature and pH for the enzyme reaction were 60$\circ$C and 11, respectively, and its thermostability was increased by the addition of calcium ion. The enzyme was inactivated by phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride, suggesting it be a serine protease. Comparing with other commercial proteases, the enzyme showed relatively high proteolytic activity against defatted soybean, a water-insoluble protein substrate.

In this study, a microorganism-produced protease was used to improve the quality of fabrics. First, the protease-producing bacteria were isolated from soils, and one of them was selected and identified as Bacillus sp. SJ-121. The optimal medium composition for its growth and protease production was determined to be as follows: glucose 1g/L, soybean meal 0.5g/L, soy peptone 0.5, $K_2HPO_4\;0.2,\;MgSO_4\cdot7H_2O\; 0.002,\;NaCl\;0.002,\;and\;Na_2CO_3g/L$. Also, the optimal temperature for the production of the protease by Bacillus sp. SJ-121 was about $40^{\circ}C$ at pH 7. The wool and silk were treated with the protease from Bacillus sp. SJ-121. Following the protease treatment, changes in the surface of a single yarn of the fabrics were observed by both an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Changes in the K/S value of the wool and silk were measured by spectrophotometric analysis, in order to determine the amount of dye uptake in the fabrics. We also performed a tensile strength examination in order to determine the degree and nature of mechanical changes in single yarns of the wool and silk fabrics. By increasing the protease treatment time to 48 h, the dyeing characteristics of the fabrics were enhanced, and the surfaces of the single yarns of the fabrics became smoother, due to the removal of soil and scale in them. However, no mechanical changes were detected in the fabrics. Therefore, we suggest that proper treatment of the protease produced by Bacillus sp. can improve the quality of silk and wool.
