Abstract

La présente invention concerne une méthode pour produire une collagénase recombinante active, provenant d'Aeromonas hydrophila, en vue d'une application dans des processus où la digestion de collagènes est nécessaire, notamment en vue d'une application médicale dans le traitement de maladies impliquant un dépôt excessive de collagènes et des pathologies médiées par le collagène. Outre leur application en milieu clinique et à des fins de recherche, les collagénases microbiennes présentent un potentiel biotechnologique élevé au niveau industriel, notamment dans l'industrie alimentaire pour l'attendrissement de viandes ou dans l'industrie de la tannerie, où elles contribuent au processus de coloration des cuirs. Ainsi, la présente invention vise à fournir une méthode pour l'obtention et la purification d'une collagénase recombinante active d'Aeromonas hydrophila, méthode selon laquelle le collagène est digéré par la collagénase avec des concentrations de collagénase inférieures à la concentration cytotoxique de la collagénase.
