A new ascomycete fungus X5, a hyperproducer (9000 U/mL) of a serine alkaline protease (SAPTEX) was identified as Penicillium chrysogenum. The experimental purification protocol comprises three steps: heat treatment (10 min at 80 °C) followed by an ammonium sulfate precipitation (30–50%)-dialysis, and a UNO Q-12 anion exchange chromatography using the FPLC system. The chemical characterizations performed include physico-chemical determination and spectroscopic analysis. The MALDI-TOF/MS analysis revealed that the purified enzyme was a monomer with a molecular mass of 43,074.11 Da. The 25 residue NH₂-terminal sequence of the enzyme showed high homology with Penicillium proteases. The optimum pH and temperature values for protease activity were pH 10 and 80 °C, respectively. Compared to other proteases (SPTC; Flavourzyme® 500 L; Proteinase, type XXIII; Proteinase K; and Alcalase® 2.4 L), SAPTEX has the highest catalytic efficacy, hydrolysis degree, and a powerful stability toward some commercial detergents. According to morphological, physico-chemical [scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-Ray analysis (EDX), and FTIR-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy], and mechanical evaluation, SAPTEX has no destructive impact on fibers after the enzyme treatment and a very slight effect on textile support. Obtained results suggested that SAPTEX may be considered as a potential candidate as a protein stain removal product for textile supports.
