PROTEIN AND NUCLEIC ACID SEQUENCE ENCODING A KRILL-DERIVED COLD ADAPTED TRYPSIN-LIKE ACTIVITY ENZYME

摘要

The present invention provides nucleic acid and corresponding amino acid sequences of two isoforms of cold adapted trypsin-like activity protein, insolated from antarctic marine origin, preferably from antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) that can be used in a variety of industrial contexts and commercial purposes including laundry detergents, food processing, drugs and skin care products. The invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequences as well as methods for producing and using the cold adapted trypsin-like protein.
