PCN¡¯s shell componentof egg shell containing chitin (inner layer) and viteline/ protein (outer layer). The purpose of this researchwas to purify of protease Bacillus sp. TBRSN-1, isolate from tomato¡¯s rhizosfer in Yogyakarta province. Thepurifi ed protease could be used for cutting the life cycle of PCN. Results showed that Bacillus sp. TBRSN-1could produce extracellular protease and purifi cation using DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange chromatographyand Sephacryl S-300 gel fi ltration chromatography resulted in specifi c activity 4.31 fold and 1.68% recovery.Analysing using SDS-PAGE 12.5% and molecular weight 48.1 kDa. Km and Vmax values of the protease forcasein substrate were 7.83 mg/ml and 4.03 ¦Ìg/h, respectively. The optimum activity at the temperature30oC and pH 7.0.
