Abstract
Proteases are the major enzymes that have been used widely in health, food and nutritional supplement fields. Rare actinobacteria are considered a new resource for proteolytic enzyme activity. Rare actinobacteria are used to be isolated from marine and have been studied on restricted limit. The strain used in this study was identified as Lentzea sp. which successfully isolated from the soil at Faculty of Science, Damietta, Egypt. It was subjected to gelatin liquefaction as primary screening for gelatinolytic activity. Based on this study, the best gelatinolytic (gelatinase) activity was noticed within 8 days at 37oC (17.59 U/ml ±0.06). The maximum activity was obtained at pH 9 (28.33 U/ml ±0.04) and at agitation speed 150 rpm (29.10 U/ml ±0.04). Upon carbon and nitrogen source optimization, the basal medium of combination between gelatin and peptone produced maximal gelatinase activity (29.12 U/ml ±0.06) and it was found that 10% sucrose was the best carbon source that produced maximum gelatinase activity at (30.17 U/ml ±0.05).
