Identification, Isolation, Cloning, and Expression of a New Alkaline Serine Protease Gene from Native Iranian Bacillus sp. RAM 53 for Use in the Industry.

Proteases are one of the most important and widely applicable proteolytic enzymes that are used in various industries. The aim of this study was to identify, isolate, characterize, and clone the new extracellular alkaline protease from the native bacterium Bacillus sp. RAM53 that was isolated from rice fields in Iran.
