I-6. Each protease component was fractionated by use of DEAE-Sephadex A-50, Sephadex G-100 and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Protease activity was determined by the digestion of casein in the reaction mixture for fractions obtained on column chromatography and on a casein agar plate for polyacrylamide gels, respectively. The method of a casein agar plate was found to be convenient to detect the protease activity on the gel. Protease fractions were alkaline proteases of which optimal pHs were from pH 10.0 to pH 11.0. Proteases F-IIa and F-IIb were very low in activity without Ca^++ ion but reactivated with the addition of Ca^++ ion remarkably, whereas the activities of F-Ia and F-Ib were unaffected or slightly affected by Ca^++ ion. Proteases of this strain were stabilized to heat by Ca^++ ion but no substantial decrease in activity was observed during 6 hr incubation at 25 C regardless of the absence of Ca^++ ion.}, pages = {71--78}, title = {Studies on the Proteases of Marine Bacteria III : Purification and Some Enzymatic Properties of Proteases}, volume = {26}, year = {} }
