Surface display of active lipase in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Saccharomyces cerevisiae</Emphasis> using Cwp2 as an anchor protein

Lipase Lip2 from Yarrowia lipolytica was displayed on the cell surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae using Cwp2 as an anchor protein. Successful display of the lipase on the cell surface was confirmed by immunofluorescence microscopy and halo assay. The length of linker sequences was further examined to confirm that the correct conformation of Lip2 was maintained. The results showed that the displayed Lip2 exhibited the highest activity at 7.6 ± 0.4 U/g (dry cell) when using (G₄S)₃ sequence as the linker, with an optimal temperature and pH at 40°C and pH 8.0. The displayed lipase did not lose any activity after being treated with 0.1% Triton X-100 and 0.1% Tween 80 for 30 min, and it retained 92% of its original activity after incubation in 10% DMSO for 30 min. It also exhibited better thermostability than free Lip2 as reported previously.     

Spacer-mediated display of active lipase on the yeast cell surface

We have constructed a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain displaying an active lipase on the cell surface by cell surface engineering. The gene encoding Rhizopus oryzae lipase (ROL) was fused with the genes encoding the pre-alpha-factor leader sequence and the C-terminal half of alpha-agglutinin including the glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor attachment signal. The constructed gene was overexpressed under the control of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter. Linker peptides (spacers) consisting of the Gly/Ser repeat sequence were inserted at the C-terminal portion of ROL to enhance lipase activity by preserving the conformation of the active site near the C-terminal portion. Localization of the expressed ROL on the cell surface was confirmed by immunofluorescence microscopy. The ROL displayed on the yeast cell wall exhibited activity toward soluble 2,3-dimercaptopropan-1-ol tributyl ester (BALB) and insoluble triolein. The insertion of linker peptides effected the activity towards BALB, thereby demonstrating that the optimal length of linker peptides was present. The activity towards triolein was higher in lipases with longer linker peptides. ROL displayed on the cell wall exhibited a comparable and/or higher activity towards triolein than the secreted form of the enzyme. This is the first report of an active lipase displayed on the cell surface. Furthermore, insertion of a linker peptide of the appropriate length as a spacer may be an improved method to effectively display enzymes, especially those having the active region at the C-terminal portion, on the cell surface.     

Enhanced reactivity of Rhizopus oryzae lipase displayed on yeast cell surfaces in organic solvents: potential as a whole-cell biocatalyst in organic solvents

Immobilization of enzymes on some solid supports has been used to stabilize enzymes in organic solvents. In this study, we evaluated applications of genetically immobilized Rhizopus oryzae lipase displayed on the cell surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in organic solvents and measured the catalytic activity of the displayed enzyme as a fusion protein with alpha-agglutinin. Compared to the activity of a commercial preparation of this lipase, the activity of the new preparation was 4.4 x 10(4)-fold higher in a hydrolysis reaction using p-nitrophenyl palmitate and 3.8 x 10(4)-fold higher in an esterification reaction with palmitic acid and n-pentanol (0.2% H2O). Increased enzyme activity may occur because the lipase displayed on the yeast cell surface is stabilized by the cell wall. We used a combination of error-prone PCR and cell surface display to increase lipase activity. Of 7,000 colonies in a library of mutated lipases, 13 formed a clear halo on plates containing 0.2% methyl palmitate. In organic solvents, the catalytic activity of 5/13 mutants was three- to sixfold higher than that of the original construct. Thus, yeast cells displaying the lipase can be used in organic solvents, and the lipase activity may be increased by a combination of protein engineering and display techniques. Thus, this immobilized lipase, which is more easily prepared and has higher activity than commercially available free and immobilized lipases, may be a practical alternative for the production of esters derived from fatty acids.     

Cloning,expression and characterization of a lipase gene (<Emphasis Type="Italic">lip3</Emphasis>) from<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Pseudomonas aeruginosa</Emphasis> LST-03

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.

Enhanced Reactivity of Rhizopus oryzae Lipase Displayed on Yeast Cell Surfaces in Organic Solvents: Potential as a Whole-Cell Biocatalyst in Organic Solvents

Immobilization of enzymes on some solid supports has been used to stabilize enzymes in organic solvents. In this study, we evaluated applications of genetically immobilized Rhizopus oryzae lipase displayed on the cell surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in organic solvents and measured the catalytic activity of the displayed enzyme as a fusion protein with α-agglutinin. Compared to the activity of a commercial preparation of this lipase, the activity of the new preparation was 4.4 × 10⁴-fold higher in a hydrolysis reaction using p-nitrophenyl palmitate and 3.8 × 10⁴-fold higher in an esterification reaction with palmitic acid and n-pentanol (0.2% H₂O). Increased enzyme activity may occur because the lipase displayed on the yeast cell surface is stabilized by the cell wall. We used a combination of error-prone PCR and cell surface display to increase lipase activity. Of 7,000 colonies in a library of mutated lipases, 13 formed a clear halo on plates containing 0.2% methyl palmitate. In organic solvents, the catalytic activity of 5/13 mutants was three- to sixfold higher than that of the original construct. Thus, yeast cells displaying the lipase can be used in organic solvents, and the lipase activity may be increased by a combination of protein engineering and display techniques. Thus, this immobilized lipase, which is more easily prepared and has higher activity than commercially available free and immobilized lipases, may be a practical alternative for the production of esters derived from fatty acids.     

Enhancing Functional Expression of Heterologous <Emphasis Type="Italic">Burkholderia</Emphasis> Lipase in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Escherichia coli</Emphasis>

Functional expression of lipase from Burkholderia sp. C20 (Lip) in various cellular compartments of Escherichia coli was explored. The poor expression in the cytoplasm of E. coli was improved by several strategies, including coexpression of the cytoplasmic chaperone GroEL/ES, using a mutant E. coli host strain with an oxidative cytoplasm, and protein fusion technology. Fusing Lip with the N-terminal peptide tags of T7PK, DsbA, and DsbC was effective in enhancing the solubility and biological activity. Non-fused Lip or Lip fusions heterologously expressed in the periplasm of E. coli formed insoluble aggregates with a minimum activity. Biologically active and intact Lip was obtained upon the secretion into the extracellular medium using the native signal peptide and the expression performance was further improved by coexpression of the periplasmic chaperon Skp. The extracellular expression was even more effective when Lip was secreted as a Lip–HlyA fusion via the α-hemolysin transporter. Finally, Lip could be functionally displayed on the E. coli cell surface when fused with the carrier EstA.     

Heterologous expression of an extra-cellular lipase from the basidiomycete Pleurotus sapidus

The 1641 bp cDNA encoding an extra-cellular lipase of the basidiomycete Pleurotus sapidus (Lip2) was cloned from a cDNA library. Expression of the cDNA in Escherichia coli, with and without signal sequence, led to the production of recombinant Lip2, mainly as inclusion bodies with low catalytic activity. Refolding yielded catalytically active protein. A C-terminal His tag was used for purification and immunochemical detection. The recombinant lipase hydrolysed xanthophyll esters with high efficiency, and omitting the signal sequence did not alter the catalytic properties. The P. sapidus lipase represents the first enzyme of the lipase/esterase family from a basidiomycetous fungus characterised on the molecular level and expressed in a manageable host.     

Cloning, expression, and characterization of a lipolytic enzyme gene (lip8) from Pseudomonas aeruginosa LST-03

A lipolytic enzyme gene (lip8) was cloned from organic solvent-tolerant Pseudomonas aeruginosa LST-03 and sequenced. In the sequenced nucleotides, an open reading frame consisting of 1,173 nucleotides and encoding 391 amino acids was found. Lip8 is considered to belong to the family VIII of lipolytic enzymes whose serine in the consensus sequence of -Ser-Xaa-Xaa-Lys- acts as catalytic nucleophile. The gene was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by a combination of ammonium sulfate fractionation and hydrophobic interaction and ion-exchange chromatographies to homogeneity on SDS-PAGE analysis. The optimum temperature and heat stability of Lip8 were not as high as those of Lip3 and LST-03 lipase, two other lipolytic enzymes from the same strain. Addition of glycerol to a solution containing Lip8 stabilized this enzyme. By measuring the activities against various triacylglycerols and fatty acid methyl esters having carbon chains of different lengths, Lip8 was categorized as an esterase which has higher activities against fatty acid methyl esters with short-chain fatty acids.     

Metagenomic approach for the isolation of a novel low-temperature-active lipase from uncultured bacteria of marine sediment

A novel lipase was isolated from a metagenomic library of Baltic Sea sediment bacteria. Prokaryotic DNA was extracted and cloned into a copy control fosmid vector (pCC1FOS) generating a library of >7000 clones with inserts of 24-39 kb. Screening for clones expressing lipolytic activity based on the hydrolysis of tributyrin and p-nitrophenyl esters, identified 1% of the fosmids as positive. An insert of 29 kb was fragmented and subcloned. Subclones with lipolytic activity were sequenced and an open reading frame of 978 bp encoding a 35.4-kDa putative lipase/esterase h1Lip1 (DQ118648) with 54% amino acid similarity to a Pseudomonas putida esterase (BAD07370) was identified. Conserved regions, including the putative active site, GDSAG, a catalytic triad (Ser148, Glu242 and His272) and a HGG motif, were identified. The h1Lip1 lipase was over expressed, (pGEX-6P-3 vector), purified and shown to hydrolyse p-nitrophenyl esters of fatty acids with chain lengths up to C14. Hydrolysis of the triglyceride derivative 1,2-di-O-lauryl-rac-glycero-3-glutaric acid 6'-methylresorufin ester (DGGR) confirmed that h1Lip1 was a lipase. The apparent optimal temperature for h1Lip1, by hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl butyrate, was 35 degrees C. Thermal stability analysis showed that h1Lip1 was unstable at 25 degrees C and inactivated at 40 degrees C with t1/2 <5 min.
