  • Patent number: 10047353
    Abstract: Recombinant collagenases with a stable specific activity and enzyme agents for cell and tissue dissociation such a recombinant are provided. The recombinant collagenase is derived from Grimontia hollisae-derived collagenase is characterized by having, from the N terminus to the C terminus, a collagenase catalytic domain, a linker region sequence, and a prepeptidase C terminal domain, which Grimontia hollisae-derived recombinant collagenase does not comprise at least the prepeptidase C terminal domain. The obtained recombinant collagenase has a high and stable specific activity.
