J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 667:199-211. [PMID: 38636222 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.04.075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 03/24/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
The catalytic performance of immobilized lipase is greatly influenced by functional support, which attracts growing interest for designing supports to achieve their promotive catalytic activity. Many lipases bind strongly to hydrophobic surfaces where they undergo interfacial activation. Herein, the behavioral differences of lipases with distinct lid structures on interfaces of varying hydrophobicity levels were firstly investigated by molecular simulations. It was found that a reasonable hydrophilic/hydrophobic surface could facilitate the lipase to undergo interfacial activation. Building on these findings, a novel "nest"-like superhydrophobic ZIFs (ZIFN) composed of hydrophobic ligands was prepared for the first time and used to immobilize lipase from Aspergillus oryzae (AOL@ZIFN). The AOL@ZIFN exhibited 2.0-folds higher activity than free lipase in the hydrolysis of p-Nitrophenyl palmitate (p-NPP). Especially, the modification of superhydrophobic ZIFN with an appropriate amount of hydrophilic tannic acid can significantly improve the activity of the immobilized lipase (AOL@ZIFN-TA). The AOL@ZIFN-TA exhibited 30-folds higher activity than free lipase, and still maintained 82% of its initial activity after 5 consecutive cycles, indicating good reusability. These results demonstrated that nanomaterials with rational arrangement of the hydrophilic/hydrophobic surface could facilitate the lipase to undergo interfacial activation and improve its activity, displaying the potential of the extensive application.

Abstract
The stability and activity of lipase in organic media are important parameters in determining how quickly biocatalysis proceeds. This study aimed to examine the effects of two commonly used alcohols in industrial applications, methanol (MtOH) and ethanol (EtOH) on the conformational stability and catalytic activity of G210C lipase, a laboratory-evolved mutant of Staphylococcus epidermidis AT2 lipase. Simulation studies were performed using an open-form predicted structure under 30, 40 and 50% of MtOH and EtOH at 25 °C and 45 °C. The overall enzyme structure becomes more flexible with increasing concentration of MtOH and exhibited the highest flexibility in 40% EtOH. In EtOH, the movement of the lid was found to be temperature-dependent with a noticeable shift in the lid position at 45 °C. Lid opening was evidenced at 50% of MtOH and EtOH which was supported by the increase in SASA of hydrophobic residues of the lid and catalytic triad. The active site remained mostly intact. An open-closed lid transition was observed when the structure was re-simulated in water. Experimental evaluation of the lipase stability showed that the half-life reduced when the enzyme was treated with 40% (v/v) and 50% (v/v) of EtOH and MtOH respectively. The finding implies that a high concentration of alcohol and elevated temperature can induce the lid opening of lipase which could be essential for the activation of the enzyme, provided that the catalytic performance in the active site is not compromised.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Appropriate amino acid substitutions are critical for protein engineering to redesign catalytic properties of industrially important enzymes like lipases. The present study aimed for improving the environmental stability of lipase from Pseudomonas plecoglossicida S7 through site-directed mutagenesis driven by computational studies. lipA gene was amplified and sequenced. Both wild type (WT) and mutant type (MT) lipase genes were expressed into the pET SUMO system. The expressed proteins were purified and characterized for pH and thermostability. The lipase gene belonged to subfamily I.1 lipase. Molecular dynamics revealed that Y12F-palmitic acid complex had a greater binding affinity (-6.3 Kcal/mol) than WT (-6.0 Kcal/mol) complex. Interestingly, MDS showed that the binding affinity of WT-complex (-130.314 ± 15.11 KJ/mol) was more than mutant complex (-108.405 ± 69.376 KJ/mol) with a marked increase in the electrostatic energy of mutant (-26.969 ± 12.646 KJ/mol) as compared to WT (-15.082 ± 13.802 KJ/mol). Y12F mutant yielded 1.27 folds increase in lipase activity at 55 °C as compared to the purified WT protein. Also, Y12F mutant showed increased activity (~ 1.2 folds each) at both pH 6 and 10. P. plecoglossicida S7. Y12F mutation altered the kinetic parameters of MT (Km- 1.38 mM, Vmax- 22.32 µM/min) as compared to WT (Km- 1.52 mM, Vmax- 29.76 µM/min) thus increasing the binding affinity of mutant lipase. Y12F mutant lipase with better pH and thermal stability can be used in biocatalysis.

Functional and molecular characterization of a cold-active lipase from Psychrobacter celer PU3 with potential a*ntibiofilm property. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 211:741-753.

Abstract
The lipase gene from Psychrobacter celer PU3 was cloned into pET-28a(+) expression vector and overexpressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3) pLysS cells. The purified Psychrobacter celer lipase (PCL) was characterized as an alkaline active enzyme and has a molecular mass of around 30 kDa. The PCL was active even at a low temperature and the optimum range was observed between 10 and 40 °C temperatures. MALDI-TOF and phylogenetic analysis ensued that Psychrobacter celer PU3 lipase (PCL) was closely related to P. aureginosa lipase (PAL). MD simulation results suggests that temperature change did not affect overall structure of PCL, but it may alter temperature- dependent PCL structural changes. R1 (129-135 AA) and R2 (187-191 AA) regions could be important for temperature-dependent PCL function as they fluctuate much at 35 °C temperature. PMSF completely inhibited PCL lipase activity and it demonstrates the presence of serine residues in the active site of PCL. PCL is moderately halophilic and most of the tested organic solvents found to be inhibiting the lipase activity except the solvents ethanol and methanol. PCL activity was increased with surfactants (SDS and CTAB) and bleaching agents (hydrogen peroxide). The effect of different metal ions on PCL resulted that only mercuric chloride was found as the enhancer of the lipase activity. Antibiofilm property of PCL was evaluated against pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolated from the diseased shrimp and MIC value was 500 U. PCL significantly altered the morphology and biofilm density of V. parahaemolyticus and the same was observed through scanning electron microscope (SEM) and confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) imaging. RT-PCR analysis revealed that the mRNA expression level of biofilm, colony morphology and major toxin-related (aphA, luxS, opaR, tolC, toxR) genes of V. parahaemolyticus were significantly downregulated with PCL treatment.

Abstract
Enzymes are particularly attractive as biocatalysts for the green synthesis of chemicals and pharmaceuticals. However, the traditional enzyme purification and separation process is complex and inefficient, which limits the wide application of enzyme catalysis. In this paper, an efficient strategy for enzyme purification and immobilization in one step is proposed. A novel poly (ionic liquid)-styrene microsphere is prepared by molecular design and synthesis for adsorbing and purifying high activity lipase from fermentation broth directly. By optimizing the surface morphologies and charge of the microspheres, the enzyme loading is significantly improved. In order to further stabilize the catalytic environment of lipase, the resulting lipase/poly (ionic liquid)-styrene microspheres are immobilized in physical crosslinking hydrogel to obtain a complex lipase catalytic system, which can be prepared into various shapes according to the requirements of catalytic environment. In the actual catalytic reaction process, this complex lipase catalytic system exhibits excellent catalytic activity (6314.69 ± 21.27 U mg-1) and good harsh environment tolerance compared with the lipase fermentation broth (1672.87 ± 36.68 U mg-1). Under the condition of cyclic catalysis, the complex lipase catalytic system shows the outstanding reusability (After 8 cycles the enzymatic activity is still higher than that of the lipase fermentation broth) and is easily separated from the products.

Abstract
Lipase is an important group of biocatalysts, which combines versatility and specificity, and can catalyze several reactions when applied in a high amount of industrial processes. In this study, the lipase produced by Aspergillus japonicus under submerged cultivation, was immobilized by physical adsorption, using clay supports, namely, diatomite, vermiculite, montmorillonite KSF (MKSF) and kaolinite. Besides, the immobilized and free enzyme was characterized, regarding pH, temperature and kinetic parameters. The most promising clay support was MKSF that presented 69.47% immobilization yield and hydrolytic activity higher than the other conditions studied (270.7 U g−1). The derivative produced with MKSF showed high stability at pH and temperature, keeping 100% of its activity throughout 12 h of incubation in the pH ranges between 4.0 and 9.0 and at a temperature from 30 to 50 °C. In addition, the immobilized lipase on MKSF support showed an improvement in the catalytic performance. The study shows the potential of using clays as support to immobilized lipolytic enzymes by adsorption method, which is a simple and cost-effective process.

Abstract
A thermostable T1 lipase from Geobacillus zalihae exhibits broad substrate specificity and good potential application in fats and oils. However, structural insight into the enzyme against substrates is poorly understood at the molecular level. Herein, the study aimed to examine interactions between a mutant T1 lipase (Mut-T1 lipase) and selected fatty acids (caprylic, myristic, stearic, oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids) by performing molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The structure of Mut-T1 lipase obtained by homology modeling was reliable for molecular docking and MD simulation. Molecular docking revealed that Mut-T1 lipase showed low binding affinity for caprylic acid (-4.97 kcal/mol) compared to the other fatty acids (-5.65 to -6.88 kcal/mol). However, the conformation of Mut-T1 lipase-caprylic acid complex was comparably stable during the simulation, in terms of less root-mean square fluctuation. Besides, solvent accessible surface area value of Mut-T1 lipase-fatty acid complexes decreased with increasing chain length of fatty acid. van der Waals interactions were requisite in maintaining complex stability during the binding process. This work provides structural insight into interactions between the lipase and the fatty acids, which will facilitate design and applications of new mutants of T1 lipase in modifying fats and oils.

Abstract
Water content is an important factor in lipase-catalyzed reactions in organic media but is frequently ignored in the study of lipases by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. In this study, Candida antarctica lipase B, Candida rugosa lipase and Rhizopus chinensis lipase were used as research models to explore the mechanisms of lipase in micro-aqueous organic solvent (MAOS) media. MD simulations indicated that lipases in MAOS systems showed unique conformations distinguished from those seen in non-aqueous organic solvent systems. The position of water molecules aggregated on the protein surface in MAOS media is the major determinant of the unique conformations of lipases and particularly impacts the distribution of hydrophilic and hydrophobic amino acids on the lipase surface. Additionally, two maxima were observed in the water-lipase radial distribution function in MAOS systems, implying the formation of two water shells around lipase in these systems. The energy landscapes of lipases along solvent accessible areas of catalytic residues and the minimum energy path indicated the dynamic open states of lipases in MAOS systems differ from those in other solvent environments. This study confirmed the necessity of considering the influence of the microenvironment on MD simulations of lipase-catalyzed reactions in organic media.

Abstract
The production and direct employment in organic medium in the ethyl-oleate synthesis of a fermented solid (FS) containing lipases by Penicillium roqueforti ATCC 10110 (PR10110) was investigated. For the production of this FS, the solid-state fermentation of different agroindustrial waste was used, such as: cocoa shell, sugarcane bagasse, sugarcane bagasse with cocoa shell, and cocoa shell with soybean oil and nutrient solution. The response surface methodology was used to study the effect of independent variables of initial moisture content and inductor concentration, as carbon source and inducer on lipase production. The characterization of the fermented solid in organic medium was also carried out. The highest lipase activity (53 ± 5 U g-1 ) was 16% higher than that obtained with the nonoptimized conditions. The characterization studies observed high stability of the FS in organic solvents for 5 h at 30°C, as well as at different temperatures, and the residual activity was measured against triolein. The FS was also able to catalyze ethyl-oleate synthesis maintaining high relative conversion over five reaction cycles of 96 h at 40°C in n-heptane. These results are promising and highlight the use of the FS containing PR10110 lipases for the first time in biocatalytic processes.

Abstract
Immobilized enzymes have received incredible interests in industry, pharmaceuticals, chemistry and biochemistry sectors due to their various advantages such as ease of separation, multiple reusability, non-toxicity, biocompatibility, high activity and resistant to environmental changes. This review in between various immobilized enzymes focuses on lipase as one of the most practical enzyme and chitosan as a preferred biosupport for lipase immobilization and provides a broad range of studies of recent decade. We highlight several aspects of lipase immobilization on the surface of chitosan support containing various types of lipase and immobilization techniques from physical adsorption to covalent bonding and cross-linking with their benefits and drawbacks. The recent advances and future perspectives that can improve the present problems with lipase and chitosan such as high-price of lipase and low mechanical resistance of chitosan are also discussed. According to the literature, optimization of immobilization methods, combination of these methods with other techniques, physical and chemical modifications of chitosan, co-immobilization and protein engineering can be useful as a solution to overcome the mentioned limitations.

Abstract
The catalytic mechanism of most lipases involves a step called "interfacial activation" which significantly increases lipases activity beyond the critical micellar concentration (CMC) of substrate. In the present study, Rhizopus chinensis lipase (RCL) was used as a research model to explore the mechanism of lipase interfacial activation beyond the CMC. Molecular dynamic (MD) simulations indicated the open- and closed-lid transitions and revealed that Phe113 was the critical site for RCL activation by its dynamic flipping. Such putative switch affecting interfacial activation has not been reported in lipase so far. The function of Phe113 was subsequently verified by mutation experiments. The F113W mutant increases the lipase catalytic efficiency (1.9 s-1·μM-1) to 280% at the optimum temperature (40 °C) and pH 8.5 with the addition of 0.12 μg protein in the 200 μL reaction system. MD simulations indicated that the fast flipping rate from the closed to the open state, the high open state proportion, and the exposure of the catalytic triad are the main reasons for the lipase activation. The mutual corroboration of simulations and site-directed mutagenesis results revealed the vital role of Phe113 in the lipase activation.
