Enhanced production of Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase in Pichia pastoris via genetic and fermentation strategies

This study attempted to enhance the expression level of Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase (TLL) in Pichia pastoris using a series of strategies. The tll gene was first inserted into the expression vector pPIC9 K and transformed into P. pastoris strain GS115. The maximum hydrolytic activity of TLL reached 4,350 U/mL under the optimal culture conditions of a 500 mL shaking flask containing 20 mL culture medium with the addition of 1.2 % (w/v) methanol, cultivation for 144 h at pH 7.0 and 27 °C. To further increase the TLL expression and copy number, strains containing two plasmids were obtained by sequential electroporation into GS115/9k-TLL #3 with a second vector, either pGAPZαA-TLL, pFZα-TLL, or pPICZαA-TLL. The maximum activity of the resultant strains GS115/9KTLL-ZαATLL #40, GS115/9KTLL-FZαATLL #46 and GS115/9KTLL-GAPTLL #45 was 6,600 U/mL, 6,000 U/mL and 4,800 U/mL, respectively. The tll copy number in these strains, as assessed by real-time quantitative PCR, was demonstrated to be seven, five, and three, respectively, versus two copies in GS115/9k-TLL #3. When a co-feeding strategy of sorbitol/methanol was adopted in a 3-L fermenter, the maximum TLL activity of GS115/9k-TLL #3 increased to 27,000 U/mL after 130 h of fed-batch fermentation, whereas, the maximum TLL activity was 19,500 U/mL after 145 h incubation when methanol was used as the sole carbon source.

Reactivation of covalently immobilized lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus

Lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL) immobilized on cyanogen bromide agarose (CNBr) may be fully inactivated when incubated in saturated solutions of guanidine. When this inactivated enzyme is re-incubated in aqueous medium, 20% of the activity may be recovered for several cycles. However, if the activity was determined in the presence of a detergent (CTAB, an activator of this enzyme), 100% of the initial activity in the presence of detergent was recovered. The enzyme was also inactivated in the presence of organic solvents and at high temperatures. Inactivations were more rapid when the activity was determined in absence of detergent. In both cases, some activity could be recovered just by incubation under mild conditions, and this increase was higher if the activity measurements were performed in the presence of CTAB. These results suggested that the opening of the lipase could be a critical step in the inactivation or reactivation of immobilized TLL. In inactivations in the presence of solvents, 100% of activity could be recovered during several cycles, while in thermal inactivations, the recovered activity decreased in each inactivation–reactivation cycle. The incubation of the enzyme inactivated by temperature in guanidine improved the results, but still 100% could not be achieved during several cycles even measured in the presence of CTAB.Thus, the simple incubation of the partially or fully inactivated enzyme under mild conditions permitted to recover some activity (enhancing the half life of the biocatalysts), even in thermal inactivations.     

Optimized butyl butyrate synthesis catalyzed by Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase

Butyl butyrate is an ester present in pineapple flavor, which is very important for the food and beverages industries. In this work, the optimization of the reaction of butyl butyrate synthesis catalyzed by the immobilized lipase Lipozyme TL‐IM was performed. n‐Hexane was selected as the most appropriate solvent. Other reaction parameters such as temperature, substrate molar ratio, biocatalyst content and added water, and their responses measured as yield, were evaluated using a fractional factorial design, followed by a central composite design (CCD) and response surface methodology. In the fractional design 2^4–1, the four variables were tested and temperature and biocatalyst content were statistically significant and then used for optimization on CCD. The optimal conditions for butyl butyrate synthesis were found to be 48°C; substrate molar ratio 3:1 (butanol:butyric acid); biocatalyst content of 40% of acid mass. Under these conditions, over 90% of yield was obtained in 2 h. Enzyme reuse was tested by washing the biocatalyst with n‐hexane or by direct reuse. The direct reuse produced a rapid decrease on enzyme activity, while washing with n‐hexane allowed reusing the enzyme for five reactions cycles keeping approximately 85% of its activity. © 2013 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Ionic strength-dependent denaturation of Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase induced by SDS

Triglyceride lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (TlL) has been reported to be resistant to denaturation by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). We have found that at neutral pH, structural integrity is strongly dependent on ionic strength. In 10 mM phosphate buffer and SDS, the lipase exhibits a far-UV CD spectrum similar to other proteins denatured in this surfactant while the near-UV CD spectrum shows a complete loss of tertiary structure, observations supported by steady state fluorescence spectroscopy. However, when increasing the ionic strength by the addition of NaCl, the lipase was rendered resistant towards SDS denaturation, as observed by all techniques employed. The effect of salt on the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of SDS was observed to correlate with the effect on the degree of SDS-induced denaturation. This finding is compatible with the notion that the concentration of SDS monomers is a crucial factor for SDS–lipase interactions. The presented results are important for the understanding and improvement of protein stability in surfactant systems.     

Optimization of recombinantEscherichia coli fed-batch fermentation for bovine somatotropin

Summary Optimum specific growth rate for the production of recombinant bovine somatotropin (bST) was investigated in fed-batchE. coli fermentation with a controlled specific growth rate. Maximum specific bST concentration based on cell mass decreases linearly with the controlled specific growth rate. Productivity of bST is expressed by a quadratic equation as a function of the specific growth rate and has a maximum value at =0.23 hr^–1.     

High cell density fed-batch fermentation for the production of a microbial lipase

Extracellular lipase of the yeast Candida rugosa was produced via high cell density fed-batch fermentations using palm oil as the sole source of carbon and energy. Feeding strategies consisted of a pH-stat operation, foaming-dependent control and specific growth rate control in different experiments. Compared to foaming-dependent feeding and the pH-stat operation, the specific growth rate control of feeding proved to be the most successful. At the specific growth rate control set at 0.05 h⁻¹, the final lipase activity in the culture broth was the highest at ∼700 U L⁻¹. This was 2.6-fold higher than the final enzyme activity obtained at a specific growth rate control set at 0.15 h⁻¹. The peak enzyme concentration achieved using the best foaming-dependent control of feeding was around 28% of the peak activity attained using the specific growth rate control of feeding at 0.05 h⁻¹. Similarly, the peak enzyme concentration attained using the pH-stat feeding operation was a mere 9% of the peak activity attained by specific growth rate control of feeding at a set-point of 0.05 h⁻¹. Fed-batch fermentations were performed in a 2 L stirred-tank bioreactor (30 °C, pH 7) with the dissolved oxygen level controlled at 30% of air saturation.

Optimization of immobilization conditions of Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase on styrene–divinylbenzene copolymer using response surface methodology

Microbial lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (formerly Humicola lanuginosa) was immobilized by covalent binding on a novel microporous styrene–divinylbenzene polyglutaraldehyde copolymer (STY–DVB–PGA). The response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the conditions for the maximum activity and to understand the significance and interaction of the factors affecting the specific activity of immobilized lipase. The central composite design was employed to evaluate the effects of enzyme concentration (4–16%, v/v), pH (6.0–8.0), buffer concentration (20–100 mM) and immobilization time (8–40 h) on the specific activity. The results indicated that enzyme concentration, pH and buffer concentration were the significant factors on the specific activity of immobilized lipase and quadratic polynomial equation was obtained for specific activity. The predicted specific activity was 8.78 μmol p-NP/mg enzyme min under the optimal conditions and the subsequent verification experiment with the specific activity of 8.41 μmol p-NP/mg enzyme min confirmed the validity of the predicted model. The lipase loading capacity was obtained as 5.71 mg/g support at the optimum conditions. Operational stability was determined with immobilized lipase and it indicated that a small enzyme deactivation (12%) occurred after being used repeatedly for 10 consecutive batches with each of 24 h. The effect of methanol and tert-butanol on the specific activity of immobilized lipase was investigated. The immobilized lipase was almost stable in tert-butanol (92%) whereas it lost most of its activity in methanol (80%) after 15 min incubation.     

Optimization of fed-batch fermentation for xylitol production by Candida tropicalis

Xylitol, a functional sweetener, was produced from xylose by biological conversion using Candida tropicalis ATCC 13803. Based on a two-substrate fermentation using glucose for cell growth and xylose for xylitol production, fed-batch fermentations were undertaken to increase the final xylitol concentration. The effects of xylose and xylitol on xylitol production rate were studied to determine the optimum concentrations for fed-batch fermentation. Xylose concentration in the medium (100 g l⁻¹) and less than 200 g l⁻¹ total xylose plus xylitol concentration were determined as optimum for maximum xylitol production rate and xylitol yield. Increasing the concentrations of xylose and xylitol decreased the rate and yield of xylitol production and the specific cell growth rate, probably because of an increase in osmotic stress that would interfere with xylose transport, xylitol flux to secretion to cell metabolism. The feeding rate of xylose solution during the fed-batch mode of operation was determined by using the mass balance equations and kinetic parameters involved in the equations in order to increase final xylitol concentration without affecting xylitol and productivity. The optimized fed-batch fermentation resulted in 187 g l⁻¹ xylitol concentration, 0.75 g xylitol g xylose⁻¹ xylitol yield and 3.9 g xylitol l⁻¹ h⁻¹ volumetric productivity.
