The present study investigates the purification and biochemical characterization of a novel extracellular serine alkaline protease, subtilisin (called SAPN) from Melghiribacillus thermohalophilus Nari2A. The highest yield of protease (395 IU/g) with white shrimp shell by-product (40 g/L) as a unique source of nutriments in the growth medium was achieved after 52 h at 55 °C. The monomeric enzyme of about 30 kDa was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate fractionation, heat treatment, followed by sequential column chromatographies.
