Chymosin is a very important industrial enzyme that commonly used in cheese manufacture. Bovine chymosin is an aspartic protease which is extracted from abomasum of suckling calves. In this study, bovine chymosin gene was first optimized and then cloned into pTOLT E.coli expression system for production of chymosin. Protein engineering of chymosin has also been attempted. A number of companies are now producing recombinant chymosin for commercial use in cheese manufacture
