We have successfully developed a protease assay using fluorescence resonance energy transfer based peptide libraries, which allows not only general detection of enzymatic activities, but more importantly substrate fingerprinting of proteases from different classes. The method allows the generation of
Bond specificity, active site and milk clotting mechanism of the Mucor miehei protease.

The amino acid sequence of Mucor pusillus aspartic proteinase was determined by analysis of fragments obtained from cleavage of the enzyme by CNBr and limited tryptic digestion. The proteinase is a single polypeptide chain protein containing 361 amino acid residues

The action of two milk-clotting fungal proteases from Mucos pusillus and Mucor miehei and of chymosins A and B on the hexapeptide, Leu-Ser-Phe(NO2)-Nle-Ala-Leu-OMe, and on kappa-casein were studied. The effects of pH and temperature on the initial rates of hydrolysis
