An extracellular Pseudomonas cepacia lipase, LipA, is inactive when expressed in the absence of the product of the limA gene. Evidence has been presented that LimA is a molecular chaperone. The lipA and limA genes have been cloned in separate and independently inducible expression systems in Escherichia coli. These systems were used to test the molecular chaperone hypothesis by investigating whether LimA could activate presynthesized prelipase and whether presynthesized LimA could activate newly synthesized prelipase. The results show that LimA cannot activate presynthesized prelipase and that presynthesized LimA can activate only a limited number of de novo synthesized prelipase molecules. Co-immunoprecipitation of prelipase/lipase with LimA generated a 1:1 complex of prelipase/lipase and LimA. The results suggest that a 1:1 complex of LipA and LimA is required for prelipase processing and secretion of active lipase.  相似文献

Extracellular cholesterol esterase of Burkholderia cepacia strain ST-200 was purified from the culture supernatant. Its molecular mass was 37 kDa. The enzyme was stable at pH 5.5–12 and active at pH 5.5–6, showing optimal activity at pH 7.0 at 45°C. Relative to the commercially available cholesterol esterases, the purified enzyme was highly stable in the presence of various water-miscible organic solvents. The enzyme preferentially hydrolyzed long-chain fatty acid esters of cholesterol, except for that of cholesteryl palmitate. The enzyme exhibited lipolytic activity toward various p-nitrophenyl esters. The hydrolysis rate of p-nitrophenyl caprylate was enhanced 3.5- to 7.2-fold in the presence of 5–20% (vol/vol) water-miscible organic solvents relative to that in the absence of organic solvents. The structural gene encoding the cholesterol esterase was cloned and sequenced. The primary translation product was predicted to be 365 amino acid residues. The mature product is composed of 325 amino acid residues. The amino acid sequence of the product showed the highest similarity to the lipase LipA (87%) from B. cepacia DSM3959.  相似文献

Growth and production of lipase by a new Geotrichum-like strain, R59, were studied. Production of extracellular lipase was substantially enhanced when the initial pH of the culture medium, types of carbon and nitrogen sources, substances probably stimulating the lipase biosynthesis, the temperature, and time of growth were optimized. Sucrose and triolein were the most effective carbon sources for lipase production. Maximum lipase activity (146 U/ml–1) was obtained with urea as the nitrogen source. Growth at 30°C, an initial pH of 6.0 and incubation time of 48 h were found as optimum conditions for cell growth and production of lipase by Geotrichum-like strain R59. The enzyme was thermostable and exhibited very high activity after 1 h incubation at 60°C.  相似文献

Lipases are important as additives in detergent formulations but their biocatalytic potential is increasingly exploited in the synthesis of high-added value chemicals, in fine-chemical production and in the pharmaceutical industry. Traditionally, conventional purification schemes comprise several chromatographic steps. Here we report a new purification procedure of the lipase (LipA) that is endogenously secreted by the Gram-negative bacterium Burkholderia glumae. This affinity purification combines the specific binding scaffold of a lipase-specific foldase (Lif) and the intrinsic resistance to chemical denaturation of LipA. The newly devised method is less labor-intensive, is fast, leads to a homogeneous preparation and can be easily scaled up. The novel and the conventional purification strategies were evaluated in parallel and characteristics of the B. glumae lipase were analyzed via CD spectroscopy. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was still present in the samples purified via the conventional purification scheme and was shown to increase the thermostability of the lipase.  相似文献

Microorganisms associated with marine sponges are potential resources for marine enzymes. In this study, culture-independent metagenomic approach was used to isolate lipases from the complex microbiome of the sponge Ircinia sp. obtained from the South China Sea. A metagenomic library was constructed, containing 6568 clones, and functional screening on 1 % tributyrin agar resulted in the identification of a positive lipase clone (35F4). Following sequence analysis 35F4 clone was found to contain a putative lipase gene lipA. Sequence analysis of the predicted amino acid sequence of LipA revealed that it is a member of subfamily I.1 of lipases, with 63 % amino acid similarity to the lactonizing lipase from Aeromonas veronii (WP_021231793). Based on the predicted secondary structure, LipA was predicted to be an alkaline enzyme by sequence/structure analysis. Heterologous expression of lipA in E. coli BL21 (DE3) was performed and the characterization of the recombinant enzyme LipA showed that it is an alkaline enzyme with high tolerance to organic solvents. The isolated lipase LipA was active in the broad alkaline range, with the highest activity at pH 9.0, and had a high level of stability over a pH range of 7.0–12.0. The activity of LipA was increased in the presence of 5 mM Ca2+ and some organic solvents, e.g. methanol, acetone and isopropanol. The optimum temperature for the activity of LipA is 40 °C and the molecular weight of LipA was determined to be ~30 kDa by SDS-PAGE. LipA is an alkaline lipase and shows good tolerance to some organic solvents, which make it of potential utility in the detergent industry and enzyme mediated organic synthesis. The result of this study has broadened the diversity of known lipolytic genes and demonstrated that marine sponges are an important source for new enzymes.  相似文献

A microbial strain (referred to as M1) that produces an extracellular lipase was isolated from a soil sample in Vietnam, and identified as a Ralstonia species by partial sequencing of its 16S rDNA. A genomic library was constructed from Pst I fragments, and a colony showing lipase activity was selected for further analysis. Sequencing of the 4.7-kb insert in this clone (named M1-72) revealed one incomplete and three complete ORFs, predicted to encode a partial hypothetical glutaminyl tRNA synthetase (304 aa), a hypothetical transmembrane protein (500 aa), a lipase (328 aa) and a lipase chaperone (352 aa), respectively. Alignment of the insert sequence with the corresponding region of the genome of R. solanacearum GMI1000 (GenBank Accession No. AL646081) confirmed the presence in the latter of the genes for the hypothetical transmembrane protein and glutaminyl tRNA synthetase, which exhibited 89–91% identity to their counterparts in M1. However, R. solanacearum GMI1000 lacks the complete lipase-encoding gene and the major part of the chaperone-encoding gene, creating a so-called black hole. The deduced amino acid sequences of the products of the lipase gene lipA and chaperone gene lipB from strain M1 shared 49.3–60.3% and 23.9–32.7% identity, respectively, with those of the Burkholderia lipase/chaperone subfamily I.2. lipB is located downstream of lipA, and separated from it by only 9 bp, and each gene has a putative ribosome binding site. The mature lipase LipA, a His-tagged derivative (LipAhis), the tagged full-length chaperone LipBhis and a truncated form (LipBhis) lacking the 56 N-terminal residues were expressed in Escherichia coli BL21. LipA, LipAhis and LipBhis could be expressed at high levels (70, 15 and 12 mg/g wet cells, respectively) and were easily purified. However, LipBhis was expressed at a much lower level which precluded purification. The specific activity of purified LipAhis, expressed on its own, was very low (<52 U/mg). However, after co-incubation with the purified LipBhis in vitro, the specific activity of the enzyme was markedly enhanced, indicating that the chaperone facilitated correct folding of the enzyme. A lipase:chaperone ratio of 1:10 was found to be optimal, yielding an enzyme preparation with a specific activity of 650 U/mg.Communicated by H. Ikeda  相似文献

Four strains of Aspergillus niger were screened for lipase production. Each was cultivated on four different media differing in their contents of mineral components and sources of carbon and nitrogen. Aspergillus niger NRRL3 produced maximal activity (325U/ml) when grown in 3% peptone, 0.05% MgSO4.7H2O, 0.05% KCl, 0.2% K2HPO4 and 1% olive oil:glucose (0.5:0.5). A. niger NRRL3 lipase was partially purified by ammonium sulphate precipitation. The majority of lipase activity (48%) was located in fraction IV precipitated at 50–60% of saturation with a 18-fold enzyme purification. The optimal pH of the partial purified lipase preparation for the hydrolysis of emulsified olive oil was 7.2 and the optimum temperature was 60°C. At 70°C, the enzyme retained more than 90% of its activity. Enzyme activity was inhibited by Hg2+ and K+, whereas Ca2+ and Mn2+ greatly stimulated its activity. Additionally, the formed lipase was stored for one month without any loss in the activity.  相似文献

An edible-oil degrading bacterial strain HH-01 was isolated from oil plant gummy matter and was classified as a member of the genus Bacillus on the basis of the nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA gene. A putative lipase gene and its flanking regions were cloned from the strain based on its similarity to lipase genes from other Bacillus spp. The deduced product was composed of 214 amino acids and the putative mature protein, consisting of 182 amino acids, exhibited 82% amino acid sequence identity with the subfamily I.4 lipase LipA of Bacillus subtilis 168. The recombinant product was successfully overproduced as a soluble form in Escherichia coli and showed lipase activity. The gene was, therefore, designated as lipA of HH-01. HH-01 LipA was stable at pH 4–11 and up to 30°C, and its optimum pH and temperature were 8–9 and 30°C, respectively. The enzyme showed preferential hydrolysis of the 1(3)-position ester bond in trilinolein. The activity was, interestingly, enhanced by supplementing with 1 mM CoCl2, in contrast to other Bacillus lipases. The lipA gene seemed to be constitutively transcribed during the exponential growth phase, regardless of the presence of edible oil.  相似文献

Microbial lipases are widely diversified in their enzymatic properties and substrate specificities, which make them very attractive for industrial application. Partially purified lipase from Bjerkandera adusta R59 was immobilized on controlled porous glass (CPG) and its properties were compared with those of the free enzyme. The free and immobilized lipases showed optimal activities at 45 and 50°C, respectively. Both enzyme forms were highly thermostable up to 60°C. The enzymes were stable at pH from 6.0 to 9.0 and their optimal pH for activity was 7.0. The free lipase was more thermostable in n-hexane than in aqueous environment. Both lipase preparations had good stabilities in non-polar solvents and were capable of hydrolysing a variety of synthetic and natural fats. Non-immobilized lipase activity was inhibited by disulphide bond reagents, serine and thiol inhibitors, while EDTA and eserine had no effect on enzyme activity. All anionic detergents tested in experiments inhibited lipase activity. The free lipase showed good stability in the presence of commercial detergents at laundry pH and temperatures. Applications of free and immobilized lipases for esterification were also presented.  相似文献

Candida rugosa lipase (EC 3.1.1.3) was used to degrade commercially-available solid poly(ester)urethane (Impranil) in an aqueous medium under different temperature, pH, enzyme and substrate concentrations. A mathematical model was developed and applied to represent the degradation kinetics of the solid polyurethane. Reaction optima were found to be pH 7 and 35°C. Diethylene glycol, a degradation byproduct, generation rate was measured to be 0.12 mg/l min and the activation energy was calculated as 9.121 kcal/gmol K. This information will be useful in developing bioreactors for practical applications to manage polyurethane wastes using lipase.  相似文献

A newly soil-isolated Staphylococcus aureus strain secretes a non-induced lipase in the culture medium. The extracellular lipase from S. aureus (SAL3) is purified to homogeneity. The purified enzyme is a tetrameric protein (180 kDa) corresponding to the association of four lipase molecules. The 15 N-terminal amino acid residues showed a high degree of homology with other staphylococcal lipase sequences. The part of the gene encoding the mature SAL3 is cloned and sequenced. The deduced polypeptide sequence, corresponding to the mature SAL3, was very similar to the mature Staphylococcus simulans lipase sequence with two additional amino acid residues (LK) at the N-terminus of SAL3. The lipase activity is maximal at pH 9.5 and 55 °C. The specific activity of about 4200 U/mg or 3500 U/mg was measured using tributyrin or olive oil emulsion as substrate, respectively, at pH 9.5 and 55 °C.In contrast to other staphylococcal lipases previously characterised, SAL3 is found to be stable between pH 5 and 12 after 24 h incubation. The enzyme retained 50% of its activity after 60 min incubation at 60 °C. This novel lipase is able to hydrolyse its substrate in presence of various oxidizing agents as well as some surfactants and some commercial detergents, then SAL3 can be considered as a good candidate for industrial and biotechnological applications.  相似文献

A partially purified lipase produced by the thermophile Geobacillus thermoleovorans CCR11 was immobilized by adsorption on porous polypropylene (Accurel EP-100) in the presence and absence of 0.1% Triton X-100. Lipase production was induced in a 2.5% high oleic safflower oil medium and the enzyme was partially purified by diafiltration (co. 500,000 Da). Immobilization conditions were established at 25 °C, pH 6, and a protein concentration of 0.9 mg/mL in the presence and absence of 0.1% Triton X-100. Immobilization increased enzyme thermostability but there was no change in neither the optimum pH nor in pH resistance irrelevant to the presence of the detergent during immobilization. Immobilization with or without Triton X-100 allowed the reuse of the lipase preparation for 11 and 8 cycles, respectively. There was a significant difference between residual activity of immobilized and soluble enzyme after 36 days of storage at 4 °C (P < 0.05). With respect to chain length specificity, the immobilized lipase showed less activity over short chain esters than the soluble lipase. The immobilized lipase showed good resistance to desorption with phosphate buffer and NaCl; minor loses with detergents were observed (less than 50% with Triton X-100 and Tween-80), but activity was completely lost with SDS. Immobilization of G. thermoleovorans CCR11 lipase in porous polypropylene is a simple and easy method to obtain a biocatalyst with increased stability, improved performance, with the possibility for re-use, and therefore an interesting potential use in commercial conditions.  相似文献

A lipase gene (lip3) was cloned from the Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain LST-03 (which tolerates organic solvents) and expressed in Escherichia coli. The cloned sequence includes an ORF consisting of 945 nucleotides, encoding a protein of 315 amino acids (Lip3 lipase, 34.8 kDa). The predicted Lip3 lipase belongs to the class of serine hydrolases; the catalytic triad consists of the residues Ser-137, Asp-258, and His-286. The gene cloned in the present study does not encode the LST-03 lipase, a previously isolated solvent-stable lipase secreted by P. aeruginosa LST-03, because the N-terminal amino acid sequence of the Lip3 lipase differs from that of the LST-03 lipase. Although the effects of pH on the activity and stability of the Lip3 lipase, and the temperature optimum of the enzyme, were similar to those of the LST-03 lipase, the relative activity of the Lip3 lipase at lower temperatures (0–35°C) was higher than that of the LST-03 lipase. In the absence of organic solvents, the half-life of the Lip3 lipase was similar to that of the LST-03 lipase. However, in the presence of most of the organic solvents tested in this study (the exceptions were ethylene glycol and glycerol), the stability of the Lip3 lipase was lower than that of the LST-03 lipase.Communicated by H.

Growth of Pseudomonas sp. 42A2 on oleic acid releases polymerized hydroxy-fatty acids as a result of several enzymatic conversions that could involve one or more lipases. To test this hypothesis, the lipolytic system of strain Pseudomonas sp. 42A2 was analyzed, revealing the presence of at least an intracellular carboxylesterase and a secreted lipase. Consensus primers derived from a conserved region of bacterial lipase subfamilies I.1 and I.2 allowed isolation of two secreted lipase genes, lipA and lipC, highly homologous to those of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. Homologous cloning of the isolated lipA and lipC genes was performed in Pseudomonas sp. 42A2 for LipA and LipC over-expression. The overproduced lipases were further purified and characterized, both showing preference for medium fatty acid chain-length substrates. However, significant differences could be detected between LipA and LipC in terms of enzyme kinetics and behaviour pattern. Accordingly, LipA showed maximum activity at moderate temperatures, and displayed a typical Michaelis–Menten kinetics. On the contrary, LipC was more active at low temperatures and displayed partial interfacial activation, showing a shift in substrate specificity when assayed at different temperatures, and displaying increased activity in the presence of certain heavy metal ions. The versatile properties shown by LipC suggest that this lipase could be expressed in response to variable environmental conditions.  相似文献

Fructosyltransferases, like the Lactobacillus reteri levansucrase, are important for the production of new fructosyloligosaccharides. Various His6- and Strep-tagged variants of this enzyme were recombinantly produced and exported into the growth medium using the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus megaterium. Nutrient-rich growth medium significantly enhanced levansucrase production and export. The B. megaterium signal peptide of the extracellular esterase LipA mediated better levansucrase export compared to the one of the penicillin amidase Pac. The combination of protein export via the LipA signal peptide with the coexpression of the signal peptidase gene sipM further increased the levansucrase secretion. Fused affinity tags allowed the efficient one-step purification of the recombinant proteins from the growth medium. However, fused peptide tags led to slightly decreased secretion of tested fusion proteins. After upscaling 2 to 3 mg affinity tagged levansucrase per liter culture medium was produced and exported. Up to 1 mg of His6-tagged and 0.7 mg of Strep-tagged levansucrase per liter were recovered by affinity chromatography. Finally, the purified levansucrase was shown to synthesize new fructosyloligosaccharides from the novel donor substrates d-Gal-Fru, d-Xyl-Fru, d-Man-Fru, and d-Fuc-Fru. R. Biedendieck and R. Beine contributed equally to this work.  相似文献

Some properties of an extracellular lipase produced byLactobacillus delbrueckii subsp.bulgaricus were studied. Maximum enzyme activity was found against olive and butter oil as enzyme substrates. Addition of 9% acacia gum, 0.1% Na-deoxycholate and 0.01 M CaCl2 to the enzyme reaction mixture increased-lipase activity from 5.3 to 14.5 (FFA/mg protein/minute) at pH 6.0 and at 40° C. Maximum lipase production was reached in the presence of glucose as a sole source of carbon, wheat bran as nitrogen source, olive oil as a sole lipid source and butyric acid as fatty acid supporting the growth medium. An initial pH value of the culture medium of 6.0 and a temperature of 35° C gave the highest lipolytic activity.  相似文献

A novel fibrinolytic enzyme from Cordyceps militaris was purified and partially characterized for the first time, which was designated C. militaris fibrinolytic enzyme (CMase). This extracellular enzyme from C. militaris was isolated by ammonium sulphate fraction, and purified to electrophoretic homogeneity using gel filtration chromatography. The apparent molecular mass of the purified enzyme was estimated to be 27.3 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity were pH 6.0 and 25 °C, respectively. In the presence of metal ions such as Mg2+ and Fe2+ ions the activity of the enzyme increased, whereas EDTA and Cu2+ ion inhibited the enzyme activity. Interestingly the N-terminal amino acid sequences of the enzyme is extremely similar to those of the trypsin proteinases from insects, and has no significant homology with those of the fibrinolytic enzyme from other medicinal mushroom. In conclusion, C. militaris produces a strong fibrinolytic enzyme CMase and may be considered as a new source for thrombolytic agents.  相似文献

The extracellular lipase structural gene was isolated from cDNA of Aureobasidium pullulans HN2-3 by using SMARTTM RACE cDNA amplification kit. The gene had an open reading frame of 1245 bp long encoding a lipase. The coding region of the gene was interrupted by only one intron (55 bp). It encodes 414 amino acid residues of a protein with a putative signal peptide of 26 amino acids. The protein sequence deduced from the extracellular lipase structural gene contained the lipase consensus sequence (G-X-S-X-G) and three conserved putative N-glycosylation sites. According to the phylogenetic tree of the lipases, the lipase from A. pullulans was closely related to that from Aspergillus fumigatus (XP_750543) and Neosartorya fischeri (XP_001257768) and the identities were 50% and 52%, respectively. The mature peptide encoding cDNA was subcloned into pET-24a (+) expression vector. The recombinant plasmid was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). The expressed fusion protein was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and western blotting and a specific band with molecular mass of about 47 kDa was found. Enzyme activity assay verified the recombinant protein as a lipase. A maximum activity of 0.96 U/mg was obtained from cellular extract of E. coli BL21(DE3) harboring pET-24a(+)LIP1. Optimal pH and temperature of the crude recombinant lipase were 8.0 and 35 °C, respectively and the crude recombinant lipase had the highest hydrolytic activity towards peanut oil.  相似文献

The genome sequence of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) contains 51 putative lipase and esterase genes mostly of unknown function. The gene estB (locus SCO 6966) was expressed as a His-tagged protein in E. coli. Esterase B was active at low temperatures exerting its maximum activity at 30°C and retaining more than 25% of its activity at 4°C. The optimum pH was 8–8.5. The enzyme was active against short synthetic p-nitrophenylesters (C2–C10) with maximum activity towards the acetate ester (C2). The esterase was tested on 13 series of racemic esters of potential interest for the synthesis of chiral pharmaceutical compounds. 4 of the series were substrates and a modest degree of enantioselectivity was observed (enantiomeric ratios of 1.1–1.9).  相似文献
