An acidophilic, slightly thermophilic bacterium, designated strain NTAP-1T, that produces a thermostable extracellular acid collagenase activity with potential industrial applications was isolated from soil of Aoba-yama Park, Sendai, Japan. The temperature range for growth was 40-65 degrees C, with an optimum at 55 degrees C, and the pH range for growth was 2.5-6.5, with an optimum at pH 5.5. Analysis of the 16S...
