title: Biosynthesis of alpha-amylase and protease by Streptomyces olivaceus 142. II. Biosynthesis of protease.
abstract: Streptomyces olivaceus 142 produces proteolytic enzymes de novo, mainly in the stationary phase of growth. The highest activity of the enzymes was observed in media containing maltose or fructose. In media supplemented with glucose, glycerol or starch the activity was lower. The synthesis of proteases is subject to catabolic repression. The proteolytic activity is reduced by phosphate buffer.
