    Author: Mitsuiki S, Sakai M, Moriyama Y, Goto M, Furukawa K.
    Journal: Biosci Biotechnol Biochem; 2002 Jan; 66(1):164-7. PubMed ID: 11866099.
    Abstract:
    A novel alkaliphilic Nocardiopsis sp., strain TOA-1, was isolated from a tile-joint of a bathroom. Strain TOA-1 produced a variety of alkaline hydrolytic enzymes. An alkaline protease, designated NAPase, was purified and characterized. NAPase had a very high keratinolytic activity and high stability under acidic conditions.
