We report structural characterization of proteases mined in silico from solid tannery waste (STW) metagenome. The physico-chemical analysis revealed the molecular weight of selected query proteases in the range of 34–43 kDa except 52.46 kDa for Cp-6. Secondary structure analysis suggested the dominance of α-helices (26–51 %) followed by β-sheets (13–34 %). Conserved regions in the selected proteases were identified using multiple sequence alignment. Diversity analysis of the proteases was performed by aligning with their best hits and already characterized proteases of similar families. The 3D structures of 19 selected amino acid sequences were deduced using homology modeling and evaluated following Ramachandran plots (R-plots), stability of the 3D conformation, and overall quality factor (G factor). The R-plots of all structures had 96.4–98.9 % residues in the favoured region, whereas 0-0.8 % lied in the outlier region. Fifteen modeled protein structures passed the quality assessment criteria and were subsequently used for molecular docking. All models showed two domains except Cp-6, which had an extra domain. Ligand binding sites and active sites were identified using sequence and structural homologs of the respective protease molecules. Serine, lysine, and serine of different conserved motifs were specified as the active site residues in carboxypeptidases, whereas serine, aspartate, and histidine were specific to aminopeptidases Ap-1, Ap-2, and Ap-4. Further, Ap-8 and Ap-9 required Mn2+ for enzyme activity along with histidine and glutamate in their active sites. These 3D structures were used for molecular docking with their specific peptide ligands to obtain stable docked conformations. Successfully docked complexes indicated the catalytic activity of these enzymes in hydrolyzing the peptide ligand. The structural and functional insights gained from our study may help in the identification of novel industrially important proteases after validation through experimental studies.
