A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11879141B2) discloses a recombinant nucleic acid molecule containing a polynucleotide that encodes the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 6, along with a heterologous regulatory sequence that is operably linked to the polynucleotide. This molecule can also be fused to a marker sequence, which may encode various polypeptides such as a glutathione-S-transferase (GST) fusion protein, a hemagglutinin A (HA) polypeptide from influenza, or a hexa-histidine peptide.

Furthermore, the patent claims a vector containing this recombinant nucleic acid molecule, with the vector specified to be a plasmid. It also includes a recombinant host cell comprising the vector, with the host cell being selected from various types including bacterial, fungal, insect, plant, and mammalian cells. The method outlined in the patent involves producing collagenase II by culturing the recombinant host cell under suitable conditions for expression of the polynucleotide and subsequently recovering the collagenase II. The host cell options for this method range from E. coli to mammalian cells like Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO) or Lactococcus lactis.
