Abstract
This invention is within the field of thermostable proteases. More specifically, the present invention relates to a thermosetable protease from Staphylothermus marinus, a process for the preparation of these enzymes, and detergent compositions comprising these enzymes. The enzyme has a temperature optimum in the range of from 90.degree.-100.degree. C. and a pH optimum in the range of from 6.5-10.
Claims14
An isolated protease having the following properties:
- (a) a pH optimum in the range of 6.5 to 10.0;
- (b) a temperature optimum in the range of 90.degree. to 100.degree. C.;
- and
- (c) immunochemical properties identical to those of the protease obtained from the strain Staphylothermus marinus, DSM No. 3639.
