Enhancement of ethyl propionate synthesis by poly (AAc-co-HPMA-cl-MBAm)-immobilized Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC-4713, exposed to Hg2+ and NH4+ ions

A purified alkaline thermo-tolerant bacterial lipase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC-4713 was immobilized on a poly (AAc-co-HPMA-cl-MBAm) hydrogel. The hydrogel-bound lipase achieved 93.6% esterification of ethanol and propionic acid (300 mM: 100 mM) into ethyl propionate at temperature 65 degrees C in 3 h in the presence of a molecular sieve (3 angstroms). In contrast, hydrogel-immobilized lipase pre-exposed to 5 mM of HgCl2 orNH4Cl resulted in approximately 97% conversion of reactants in 3 h into ethyl propionate under identical conditions. The salt-exposed hydrogel was relatively more efficient in repetitive esterification than the hydrogel-bound lipase not exposed to any of the cations. Moreover, bound lipase exposed Hg2+ or NH4+ ions showed altered specificity towards p-nitrophenyl esters and was more hydrolytic towards higher C-chain p-nitrophenyl esters (p-nitrophenyl laurate and p-nitrophenyl palmitate with C 12 and C 16 chain) than the immobilized lipase not exposed to any of the salts. The later showed greater specificity towards p-nitrophenyl caprylate (C 8).     

Separation and characterization of the acid lipase and neutral esterases from human liver.

Electrophoresis of human liver homogenates followed by reaction with 4-methylumbelliferyl palmitate reveals the presence of two major electrophoretic forms with esterase (lipase) activity toward this substrate. The two enzymes were isolated and partially purified based on their solubility differences and their relative affinities for the lectin column concanavalin A-Sepharose 4B. Lipase A was particulate with an acidic pH optimum (5.2) and could be solubilized with the non-ionic surfactant Triton X-100. Lipase B was soluble and had a more neutral pH optimum (6.3--6.6). Both forms bound to immobilized concanavalin A and could be specifically eluted. Buffers containing alpha-methylmannoside eluted lipase B, and buffers with alpha-methylmannoside and Triton X-100 eluted lipase A, giving a 22- and 257-fold purification, respectively, over whole-tissue homogenates. Cholesterol oleate, trioleoylglycerol, and 4-methylumbelliferyl palmitate were substrates for solubilized lipase A. Lipase B hydrolyzed 4-methylum-belliferyl palmitate but not trioleoylglycerol or cholesterol oleate. Lipase B was more thermolabile than lipase A, and it was selectively inhibited by diethyl-p-nitrophenyl phosphate at low concentrations. We conclude that lipase A and B are distinctly different enzymes and that they are probably not related polymorphic forms of one another.

Purification of a moderate thermotolerant Bacillus coagulans BTS1 lipase and its properties in a hydro-gel system

An alkaline thermotolerant lipase of Bacillus coagulans BTS1 was successively purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation and DEAE anion exchange chromatography. The purified lipase immobilized in alginate beads showed an optimal activity at pH 7.5 and 55 degrees C. A pH of 5.0 or 10.0 completely quenched the activity of immobilized lipase. The alginate-bound lipase retained its activity following exposure to most of the organic solvents including amines, alkanes and alcohols. Chloride salt of Al3+, Co2+, Mg2+ and NH4+ modulated the lipase activity of alginate-immobilized enzyme. The alginate entrapped lipase showed a preferentially high activity towards p-nitrophenyl palmitate (C: 16) and activity of matrix increased following exposure to SDS. Moreover, the immobilized lipase retained more than 50% of its activity after 3rd cycle of reuse.     

Effects of lipidic carbon sources on the extracellular lipolytic activity of a newly isolated strain of Bacillus subtilis

An isolate exhibiting high extracellular lipolytic activity was identified as Bacillus subtilis by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The enzyme activity of the isolate was improved by using different concentrations of lipidic carbon sources such as vegetable oils, fatty acids and triglycerides. Lipolytic activity was assayed spectrophotometrically using p-nitrophenyl palmitate. One percent (v/v) of sesame oil provided the highest activity with 80 and 98% enhancements with respect to 1% (v/v) concentrations of linoleic acid and triolein as the favored fatty acid and triglyceride, respectively. Glucose presented a repressive effect on lipase production. Lipase secreted by B. subtilis was partially purified by ultrafiltration and anion exchange chromatography; and the purified enzyme was tested for its residual activity in the presence of EDTA, SDS, Triton X-100, Tween 20, Tween 80 and protease. The present work reports, for the first time, that the lipolytic activity of a B. subtilis strain can be improved by using inexpensive vegetable oils; and also that B. subtilis lipase is suitable for use in detergents.     

Isolation identification and biochemical characterization of a novel halo-tolerant lipase from the metagenome of the marine sponge Haliclona simulans

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) catalyze the hydrolysis of triacyl glycerol to glycerol and are involved in the synthesis of both short chain and long chain acylglycerols. They are widely used industrially in various applications, such as baking, laundry detergents and as biocatalysts in alternative energy strategies. Marine ecosystems are known to represent a large reservoir of biodiversity with respect to industrially useful enzymes. However the vast majority of microorganisms within these ecosystems are not readily culturable. Functional metagenomic based approaches provide a solution to this problem by facilitating the identification of novel enzymes such as the halo-tolerant lipase identified in this study from a marine sponge metagenome. RESULTS: A metagenomic library was constructed from the marine sponge Haliclona simulans in the pCC1fos vector, containing approximately 48,000 fosmid clones. High throughput plate screening on 1% tributyrin agar resulted in the identification of 58 positive lipase clones. Following sequence analysis of the 10 most highly active fosmid clones the pCC1fos53E1 clone was found to contain a putative lipase gene lpc53E1, encoded by 387 amino acids and with a predicted molecular mass of 41.87 kDa. Sequence analysis of the predicted amino acid sequence of Lpc53E1 revealed that it is a member of the group VIII family of lipases possessing the SXTK motif, related to type C beta-lactamases. Heterologous expression of lpc53E1 in E. coli and the subsequent biochemical characterization of the recombinant protein, showed an enzyme with the highest substrate specificity for long chain fatty acyl esters. Optimal activity was observed with p- nitrophenyl palmitate (C16) at 40degreesC, in the presence of 5 M NaCl at pH 7; while in addition the recombinant enzyme displayed activity across broad pH (3-12) and temperature (4 -60degreesC) ranges and high levels of stability in the presence of various solvents at NaCl concentrations as high as 5 M and at temperatures ranging from 10 to 80degreesC. A maximum lipase activity of 2,700 U/mg was observed with 10 mM p-nitrophenyl palmitate as substrate, in the presence of 5 mM Ca 2+ and 5 M NaCl, and a reaction time of 15 min at pH 7 and 40degreesC; while KM and Vmax values were calculated to be 1.093 mM-1and 50 umol/min, respectively. CONCLUSION: We have isolated a novel halo tolerant lipase following a functional screen of a marine sponge fosmid metagenomic library. The activity and stability profile of the recombinant enzyme over a wide range of salinity, pH and temperature; and in the presence of organic solvent and metal ions suggests a utility for this enzyme in a variety of industrial applications.     

Cloning, expression and characterization of a lipase gene from the Candida antarctica ZJB09193 and its application in biosynthesis of vitamin A esters

Lipase is one of the most important industrial enzymes, which has been widely used in the preparation of food additives, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals industries. In order to obtain a large amount of lipase, the lipase gene from Candida antarctica ZJB09193 was cloned, and expressed in Pichia pastoris with the vector pPICZαA. Under the optimal conditions, the yield of recombinant lipase in the culture broth reached 3.0 g/L. After purification, the properties of recombinant lipase were studied: the optimum pH and temperature were pH 8.0 and 52°C, Ca(2+) activated the activity of lipase, and the apparent K(m) and V(max) values for p-nitrophenyl acetate were 0.34 mM and 7.36 μmol min(-1) mg(-1), respectively. Furthermore, the recombinant lipase was immobilized on pretreated textile for biosynthesis of vitamin A esters. In a system of n-hexane, 0.3 g immobilized recombinant lipase was used in the presence of 0.06 g vitamin A acetate and 0.55 mmol fatty acid (nine different fatty acids were tested). The yield of all vitamin A esters exceeded 78% in 7h at 30°C except using lactic acid and hexanoic acid as substrates. After optimization, the yield of vitamin A palmitate reached 87%. This study has the potential to be developed into industrial application.     

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.     

Partial purification and characterization of the organic solvent-tolerant lipase produced by Pseudomonas fluorescens RB02-3 isolated from milk

Eighty-five putative Pseudomonas isolates were obtained from various raw milk and pasteurized milk samples using Pseudomonas CFC agar. Among them, 36 isolates were identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens, and one isolate was identified as Pseudomonas putida. Lipase activity of the strains was quantitatively measured by the spectrophotometric method using p-nitrophenyl palmitate (p-NPP) as substrate. Detected lipase activity of the strains was between 10.03 U/mL and 22.16 U/mL. Pseudomonas fluorescens RB02-3 possessed the highest lipase activity. The extracellular lipase of P. fluorescens RB02-3 strain was homogeneously purified using a combination of ammonium sulfate precipitation, dialysis, and gel filtration column chromatography. This purification procedure resulted in 2.97-fold purification with 20.3% recovery. The enzyme was characterized, and exhibited maximum activity at pH 7.0 and 50 °C; after it was incubated for 1 h it was activated in the presence of hexane, ethyl acetate, isopropanol, and ethanol and remained stable after the incubation was extended for 2 hr. The lipase was slightly inhibited in the presence of Zn2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Ni2+ salts, and ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), whereas Cd2+, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and Tween-80 had no effect on its activity.     

Sesquiterpene farnesol as a competitive inhibitor of lipase activity of Staphylococcus aureus

Staphylococcus aureus lipase (SAL) is known to possess broad substrate specificity for triacylglycerides. We found that a sub-minimum inhibitory concentration of farnesol (1000 mg L(-1)) inhibits this lipase activity on a Mueller-Hinton agar containing 1% Tween substrates. A quantitative lipase assay using p-nitrophenyl palmitate (pNPP) revealed that the inhibitory action of farnesol appears to be the result of the inhibition of lipase activity rather than of its secretion into the culture medium. The inhibition was observed in all the tested 8 methicillin-susceptible S. aureus and 31 methicillin-resistant S. aureus clinical isolates. Using homogeneous lipase purified by hydrophobic interaction chromatography, it was revealed that farnesol could competitively inhibit the lipase activity against the substrate pNPP.
