Problems solved by technology

[0005] At present, the properties of most acid proteases are not satisfactory, and the enzyme activity is not high, which brings great waste to industrial production and food processing, and also limits its application range to a certain extent.
Due to the difference between the optimal action conditions of the enzyme itself and the catalyzed environmental conditions (such as pH, temperature, etc.), the catalytic efficiency of the enzyme is reduced, and its industrial application is limited.
Most of the acid proteases used in industrial production are fungal acid proteases. The optimum pH value of such enzymes is about 3.0. When the pH value increases, the enzyme activity of acid proteases will decrease significantly, and these enzymes are not heat-resistant. It is very unstable when the temperature reaches above 50°C, which limits the application of acid protease

Embodiment 1

[0049] Cloning of embodiment 1 protease coding gene 6749

[0050] Thermoascus crustaceus genomic DNA was extracted and stored at -20°C for later use.

[0051]Synthetic amplification primers were designed, and the total DNA of Thermoascus crustaceus was used as template for PCR amplification. The PCR reaction parameters are: 95°C for 5min; 35 cycles of 94°C for 30sec, 60°C for 30sec, 72°C for 2min, and 72°C for 10min. A fragment of about 1800bp was obtained, which was recovered and sequenced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of genetic engineering. Specifically, the present invention relates to an acid protease 6749 derived from fungi and its gene and application. Background technique [0002] Protease is a kind of enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of protein, and is widely used in industries such as food, washing, and tanning. Compared with animal and plant-derived proteases, microbial-derived proteases have the characteristics of convenient cultivation, simple operation and high enzyme production, which are convenient for industrial batch production and can be used in large-scale production. Therefore, microbial-derived proteases have become an important source of current proteases. [0003] Proteases are classified into acidic proteases, alkaline proteases and neutral proteases according to the pH at which they act. According to the active center, proteases can be divided into four categories: serine proteases, aspartic proteases...
