This experiment was conducted to utilize the water soluble protein from the fish meal in wastewater as nitrogen source by alkaline protease producting bacteria and to investigate the culture condition of the production. G-12 and G-14 strains having the strong activity of the alkaline pretense were isolated from sea water. These strains were identified as Pseudomonas chlororaphis and Pseudomonas alcaligenes according to physiologycal characteristics, respectively. In enzyme production, galactose and casein for G-12 strain, and raffinose and the water soluble protein of the fish meal wastewater for G-14 strain was favorable as carbon and nitrogen source. An action of inhibition appeared in all of the metal salts used. The optimal temperature of enzyme production was $30^{\circ}C$ for all strains. Optimal initial pH for the enzyme formation in G-12 and G-14 strains was pH 10.0 and 8.0. When these two strains were incubated for $30\~35$ hours in the optimal production medium, the enzyme production reached at maximum.

From the culture supernatant of the psychrotrophic strain of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens an extracellular serine protease was purified to apparent homogeneity by successive purification steps using QAE-Sephadex, SP-Sephadex and Sephacryl S-100 column chromatography. The pretense is monomeric, with a relative molecular mass of 23,000. It is inhibited by the serine protease inhibitor phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, but not by EDTA. The enzyme is most active at pH 9-10 and at $45^{\circ}C$, although it is unstable at $60^{\circ}C$.

In this study, we screened and identified the bacterial strain showing high alkaline pretense inhibitor activity from marine environment. Nine bacterial strains with alkaline pretense inhibitor activity were isolated from marine sediments. Among them, strain C12 had the highest alkaline pretense inhibitor activity and was selected for further taxonomical study. On the basis of morphological and physiological characteristics, strain C12 was identified as the genus Streptomyces. A phylogenetic analysis of the 165 rDNA showed that the isolated strain was actually a member of the genus Streptomyces, because the determined sequence exhibited a higher homology with Streptomyces thermocarboxydus. Morphological characteristics showed cylindrical spore chain and smooth spore surface by scanning electron microscope. Strain C12 was grown on all media except for ISP 9 agar. This strain could be grown in the medium containing up to 9% NaCl.

An alkaline pretense Producing microorganism was isolated from Korean traditional soy sauce and identified as Bacillus subtilis CCKS-111. The optimum culture condition of Bacillus subtilis CCKS-111 for the production of alkaline pretense was as follow: 2% soluble starch, 0.2% peptone, 0.1% (NB$_4$)$_2$S$_2$O$_{8}$ , 0.2% MgSO$_4$, pH 7.0, 35$^{\circ}C$ and 24hrs. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity of alkaline pretense producing Bacillus subtilis CCKS-111 were pH 9.0 and 5$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was relatively stable at pH 6.0~11.0 and at temperature below 4$0^{\circ}C$. The activity of the enzyme was inhibited by $K^{+}$ and Hg$^{2+}$, whereas Cu$^{2+}$ exhibited rather activating effects on the enzyme activity. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride inhibited the enzyme activity. This indicates that this is serine pretense which requires metal ion group for the enzyme activity. Km value was 2.313$\times$10$^{-4}$ M/L, V$_{max}$ value was 39.216$\mu\textrm{g}$/min. This enzyme hydrolyzed casein more rapidly than the hemoglobin.lobin.

V. parahaemolyticus possessed an extracellular alkaline protease activity during the stationary growth phase. Various factors such as initial pH of medium, incubation temperature and shaking rate were investigated far optimizing the production of alkaline protease from V. parahaemolyticus ATCC 17802. Maximal activity of the protease was obtained when the bacteria were grown in 2% skim milk medium in 0.1M tris/HCl buffer (pH 7.6). Maximal activity of the protease was obtained when the bacteria were growls at initial pH of 7.6, incubation temperature 37$^{\circ}C$ and shaking rate of 250 rpm.

A crystalline alkaline pretense- producing Streptomyce sp. YSA-130 was isolated from soil in alkaline medium(pH 10.5). The optimum culture condition of Streptomyce sp. YSA-130 for the production of alkaline protease was as follows; 2.0% soluble starch, 1.0% soytone, 0.3% $K_2$HPO$_4$, 0.02% MgSO$_4$.7$H_2O$, 0.8% Na$_2$CO$_3$, pH 10.5, 3$0^{\circ}C$, and 12 hr. The alkaline pretense from the culture broth of Streptomyce sp. YSA-130 was purified about 24 folds by ammonium sulfate precipitation , dialysis, DEAE-cellulose ion exchange chromatography, gel filtration on Sephadex G-15 and crystallization. Optimum temperature and pH of purified enzyme were 6$0^{\circ}C$, and 11.5. Temperature and pH stability of purified enzyme were 5$0^{\circ}C$, and 5.5-12.0. Calcium ion was effective to stabilize the enzyme at higher temperature. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was approximately 30,000. The purified enzyme was inactivated by diisopropyl flurophosphate(DFP) but not affected by metal ion, EDTA, sulfhydryl reagent and stable detergent.

Alkaline protease which is an important enzyme used in detergents, leather tanning and food industry was produced by alkalophilic bacterium, Bacillus sp. KCTC 1723 isolated from soil. The maximum productivity of the enzyme in alkaline medium containing 1% sodium bicarbonate was obtained by incubating for 3 days at 37$^{\circ}C$. The optimum pH of the enzyme was 11.5 and calcium ion was effective on stabilization of the enzyme at high temperature. The enzyme was not inhibited by metal chelating agent such as El)TA but inhibited by diisopropyl fluorophosphate. Purification of the enzyme was carried out DEAE- and CM-cellulose column chromatographies and molecular weight of the purified enzyme was determined

The production of bacterial protease and its characteristics were investigated with Bacillus subtilis globigii CCKS-118 which was isolated from Korean traditional soy sauce. The optimum culture condition of the strain for the production of alkaline protease was as follow : 2% soluble starch, 0.2% yeast extract, 0.1% $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, 0.2% $MgSO_4$, pH 7.5, $35^{\circ}C$ and 20h rs. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme action of alkaline protease producing Bacillus subtilis globigii CCKS-118 were pH 9.0 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was relatively stable at $pH\;6.0{\sim}9.0$ and at temperature below $40^{\circ}C$. The activity of the enzyme was inhibited by $Hg^{2+}$ whereas $Cu^{2+}$ gave rather activating effects on the enzyme activity. The enzyme was inhibited by phenylmethane-sulfonyl fluoride indicating serine pretense metal ion group are required for the enzyme activity. Km value was $1.242{\times}10^{-4}M$, $V_{max}$ value was $25.99\;{\mu}g/min$. This enzyme hydrolyzed casein more rapidly than the hemoglobin.

To check the differences of the digestive enzymes by the bait habits and the proteolytic activities of the fissile extracts from the fish, omnivorous filefish (Navodon modestus), carnivorous cat shark (Scilliorhinus tarazame) and bloodsucking hag fish (Eptatretus burgeri) were sampled for this experiment. The activity of crude alkaline protease extracted from the muscle and the internal organs of the samples was determined with casein as substrate. The activity of the proteolytic enzymes showed remarkable differences by the organs of the fish. The optimum condition of the pretenses from the muscle revealed in range of pH 7.8-8.3, at $60-65^{\circ}C$, while those of the enzymes from the internal organs were at about pH 8.2, $45-55^{\circ}C$, but those of hag fish were at about pH 6.7, $45-55^{\circ}C$. The proteolytic activity of the enzyme of alimentary canal in filefish and in hag fish was 57 and 11 times stronger than that of muscle, respectively. The crude enzyme from the alimentary canal of file fish showed the strongest proteolytic activity in samples submitted and that of cat shark was the lowest. The activity of pancreatic alkaline protease in cat shark was 50 fold higher than that of muscle alkaline protease in the fish.
