Abstract Background Adding acid protease to feed can enhance protein digestibility, boost feed utilization, and stimulate the growth of animals in breading industry. In order to obtain an acid protease with high hydrolysis efficiency to plant protein, in this study, an aspartic protease from Aspergillus niger was heterologous expressed in Pichia pastoris (P. pastoris). The enzymatic properties and application in soybean protein degradation were also studied. Results In our investigation, the high aspartic protease (Apa1) activity level of 1500 U/mL was achieved in 3 L bioreactor. After dialysis and anion exchange chromatography, the total enzyme activity and specific enzyme activity were 9412 U and 4852 U/mg, respectively. The molecular weight of the purified protease was 50 kDa, while the optimal pH and temperature were 3.0 and 50 °C, respectively. It was stable at pH 2.0–5.0 and 30–60 °C. Apa1 was used to hydrolyze soybean isolate protein (SPI) at 40 °C and pH 3.0, and a high hydrolysis degree (DH) of 61.65% was achieved. In addition, the molecular weight distribution of SPI hydrolysis products was studied, the result showed that the hydrolysis products were primarily oligopeptides with molecular weights of 189 Da or below. Conclusions In this study, Apa1 was successfully expressed in P. pastoris and high expression level was obtained. In addition, the highest protein hydrolysis rate to SPI degradation so far was achieved. The acid protease in this study provides a new protease that is suitable for the feed industry, which will be very helpful to improve the feed utilization and promote the development of the breeding industry. |
