Proteinase, Aspergillus oryzae is a serine protease that hydrolyzes peptide bonds in protein substrates, preferring alkaline conditions (optimal pH 10.5). It efficiently degrades casein, poly-L-glutamic acid, and poly-L-lysine, with activity irreversibly inhibited by diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) and potato inhibitor. This enzyme catalyzes proteolysis via serine residues in its active site, finding applications in food processing (e.g., soy sauce fermentation), detergents, and leather industries due to its high yield in solid-state fermentation and cost-effective production.
