ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a method of recovering and purifying chymosin from fermentation used for microbial production of chymosin. The fermentation mixture is filtered to provide a filtrate containing the chymosin. The filtrate is first prepared by either adjusting it to a low pH, such as about 2 and/or adjusting the salt concentration of the filtrate to at least about 2M. The aqueous filtrate mixture is contacted with a phenyl-sepharose resin, which selectively binds the chymosin from the filtrate. The filtrate remaining after the contact with the phenyl-sepharose resin is discarded, and the phenyl-sepharose resin column is eluted with water or dilute salt solution to obtain substantially pure chymosin in a single elution step.
