Proteolytic enzymes are commercially valuable and have multiple applications in various industrial sectors. The most studied proteolytic enzymes produced by Yarrowia lipolytica, extracellular alkaline protease (Aep) and extracellular acid protease (Axp), were shown to be good candidates for different biotechnological applications. In this study, we performed a comprehensive analysis of the alkaline proteolytic enzymes of Yarrowia clade species, including phylogenetic studies, synteny analysis, and protease production and application. Using a combination of comparative genomics approaches based on sequence similarity, synteny conservation, and phylogeny, we reconstructed the evolutionary scenario of the XPR2 gene for species of the Yarrowia clade. Furthermore, except for the proteolytic activity of the analyzed Yarrowia clade strains, the brewers’ spent grain (BSG) was used as a substrate to obtain protein hydrolysates with antioxidant activity. For each culture, the degree of hydrolysis was calculated. The most efficient protein hydrolysis was observed in the cultures of Y. lipolytica, Y. galli, and Y. alimentaria. In contrast, the best results obtained using the 2,2-azinobis (3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) method were observed for the culture medium after the growth of Y. divulgata, Y. galli, and Y. lipolytica on BSG.
