| Product Name | Thermitase |
| Example Structure | ![]() |
| Synonyms | EC 3.4.21.14, PLLA-degrading enzyme, PrlA, Proteinase, Thermoactinomyces vulgaris serine, proteolysin, Thermoactinomyces vulgaris serine proteinase, Thermophilic Streptomyces serine proteinase, thermostable serine protease |
| EC Number | 3.4.21.66 |
| CAS Registry Number | 69772-87-8 |
| Comments | A peptidase of family?S8?(subtilisin family) from?Thermoactinomyces vulgaris?containing a single Cys, near the active site His, and inhibited by?p-mercuribenzoate. The N-terminal extension of the polypeptide chain relative to subtilisin contributes to Ca2+-binding and the high thermostability. The amino acid composition and properties of the thermostable enzyme from?Streptomyces rectus?var.?proteolyticus?(formerly included in EC?3.4.21.14) are closely similar [1,2]. |
