| Abstract: | Vibrio sp. V26 isolated from mangrove sediment showed 98 % similarity to 16S rRNA gene of Vibrio cholerae, V. mimicus, V. albensis and uncultured clones of Vibrio. Phenotypically also it resembled both V. cholerae and V. mimicus.Serogrouping, virulence associated gene profiling, hydrophobicity, and adherence pattern clearly pointed towards the non—toxigenic nature of Vibrio sp. V26. Purification and characterization of the enzyme revealed that it was moderately thermoactive, nonhemagglutinating alkaline metalloprotease with a molecular mass of 32 kDa. The application of alkaline protease from Vibrio sp. V26 (APV26) in sub culturing cell lines (HEp-2, HeLa and RTG-2) and dissociation of animal tissue (chick embryo) for primary cell culture were investigated. The time required for dissociation of cells as well as the viable cell yield obtained by while administeringAPV26 and trypsin were compared. Investigations revealed that the alkaline protease of Vibrio sp. V26 has the potential to be used in animal cell culture for subculturing cell lines and dissociation of animal tissue for the development of primary cell cultures, which has not been reported earlier among metalloproteases of Vibrios. |

| Abstract: | The thesis presents a detailed account of the alkaline protease produced by Vibrio sp.(V26) a mangrove isolate,and the application of this enzyme in different fields.The protease producer strain was identified on the basis of biochemical characteristice,putative virulence traits and 16S rRNA gene sequencing.The purification and characterization of the protease has been carried out. Along with this, an attempt has been made to identifiy the protease gene. The physical parameters as well as the media components influencing protease production were optimized using Response Surfce Methodology(RSM).The scale up of the application of the protease from Vibrio sp.(V26) in the dissociation of cells in animal cell culture,in the recovery of silver from used X-ray films as well as an ingredient in commercial detergents were investigated. |
