Salt stress represses production of extracellular proteases in Bacillus pumilus

R. F. Liu, Huang, C. L., and Feng, H., Salt stress represses production of extracellular proteases in Bacillus pumilus, vol. 14, pp. 4939-4948, 2015.

Bacillus pumilus is able to secrete subtilisin-like prote­ases, one of which has been purified and characterized biochemically, demonstrating great potential for use in industrial applications. In the current study, the biosynthesis and transcription of extracellular pro­teases in B. pumilus (BA06) under salt stress were investigated using various methods, including a proteolytic assay, zymogram analysis, and real-time PCR.
