Keratinase
Keratinase (KerA) is an orally active proteolytic enzyme that specifically degrades keratin, and it is mainly secreted by microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes. Keratinase degrades keratin via reducing disulfide bond cross-links and cleaving peptide bonds, and it can also degrade infectious prion proteins. Keratinase can improve the nutritional bioavailability of keratin-based feed, and it can also be applied in various fields including depilation, proteolytic cleaning, organic fertilizer precursor preparation, cosmetics, bioenergy production, wastewater decolorization, biomolecule extraction, bioremediation, textile biopretreatment and feed processing.
