The hydrolysis of milk proteins by the recombinant AprX‐SK37 protease and the changes in the rheological properties of the milk gel generated with A pr X ‐ SK 37 and glucono‐δ‐lactone ( GDL ) were investigated. The A pr X ‐ SK 37 and rennet selectively hydrolysed κ‐casein to yield a 16‐kDa band, while subtilisin hydrolysed all of the casein components. Milk treated only with A pr X ‐ SK 37 formed softer gel. Storage modulus (G′) values of the combined gels increased with GDL concentrations up to 7 g/L. High tan δ was observed in the combined gel at 8.75 g/L GDL alongside syneresis. AprX‐SK37 is a promising milk‐clotting enzyme when combined with an optimal GDL concentration.
