“…Similar to most aspartic proteases, P10 displays high activity in the pH range of 1.0-4.0, and shows good stability when incubated at acidic conditions. It is worth mentioning that P10 originates from psychrophilic fungi; however, its optimum temperature approaches 60°C, retaining approximately 80% activity at 50-70°C, which is much higher than that of mesophile aspartic proteases from Aspergillus niger (Yin, Hsu, & Jiang, 2013 ) and Aspergillus clavatus (Sampaio e Silva, Knob, Tremacoldi, Brochetto-Braga, & Carmona, 2011 ), and even as high as that of aspartic proteases from thermophilic fungi, such as Thermomucor indicae-seudaticae (Silva, Geraldes, Murari, Gomes, & Da-Silva, 2014 ). This indicates toward the abundant enzyme reserves in microorganisms and their robust resistance to harsh environments.…”
