Abstract
- Serratiopeptidase, a proteolytic enzyme serves as an important anti-inflammatory and analgesic medication. Present study reports the production and purification of extracellular serratiopeptidase from an endophyte, Serratia marcescens MES-4, isolated from Morus rubra. Purification of the enzyme by Ion exchange chromatography led to the specific activity of 13,030 U/mg protein of serratiopeptidase, showcasing about 3.1 fold enhanced activity. The catalytic domain of the purified serratiopeptidase, composed of Zn coordinated with three histidine residues (His 209, His 213, and His 219), along with glutamate (Glu 210) and tyrosine (Tyr 249). The molecular mass, as determined by SDS-PAGE was ∼51 kDa. The purified serratiopeptidase displayed optimal activity at pH 9.0, temperature 50°C. Kinetic studies revealed V max and K m values of 33,333 U/mL and 1.66 mg/mL, respectively. Further, optimized conditions for the production of serratiopeptidase by Taguchi design led to the productivity of 87 U/mL/h with 87.9 fold enhanced production as compared to the previous conditions. • Purification and characterization of serratiopeptidase from the endophyte Serratia marcescens MES-4, isolated from Morus rubra. • Enhancement of serratiopeptidase activity by Taguchi L16 orthogonal array design. • Productivity of 87U/mL/h with 87.9 fold enhanced production was achieved as compared to the previous conditions.
