Abstract
In light of the growing demand for novel biocatalysts and enzyme production methods, this study aimed to evaluate the potential of Aspergillus tubingensis for producing lipase under submerged culture investigating the influence of culture time and inducer treatment. Moreover, this study also investigated conditions for the immobilization of A. tubingensis lipase by physical adsorption on styrene-divinylbenzene beads (Diaion HP-20), for these conditions to be applied to an alternative immobilization system with a packed-bed reactor. Furthermore, A. tubingensis lipase and its immobilized derivative were characterized in terms of their optimal ranges of pH and temperature. A. tubingensis was shown to be a good producer of lipase, obviating the need for inducer addition. The enzyme extract had a hydrolytic activity of 23 U mL-1 and achieved better performance in the pH range of 7.5 to 9.0 and in the temperature range of 20 to 50 °C. The proposed immobilization system was effective, yielding an immobilized derivative with enhanced hydrolytic activity (35 U g-1), optimum activity over a broader pH range (5.6 to 8.4), and increased tolerance to high temperatures (40 to 60 ℃). This research represents a first step toward lipase production from A. tubingensis under a submerged culture and the development of an alternative immobilization system with a packed-bed reactor. The proposed system holds promise for saving time and resources in future industrial applications.

Abstract
The novel cold-adapted lipase (Lip ZC12) derived from Psychrobacter sp. ZY124 exhibited higher catalytic activity at 20-40 °C, the whole gene was then sequenced, analyzed, and overexpressed. However, its intrinsic structural characteristics lead to a decreased affinity toward the substrate, thus limiting the improvement of catalytic efficiency. Modeling the homologous structure and simulating the binding process of Lip ZC12 with the substrate. It was found that truncated lid (lip-Δlid) could not only increase the kcat, but also significantly enhance the substrate affinity, the substrate affinity and catalytic efficiency of Lip ZC12 modified by lid truncation were significantly improved. The results revealed that the kcat/Km value of lip-Δlid was 1.6 times higher than that of free lipase. This improved catalytic performance of cold-adapted lipase, and these findings laid an important foundation for further application.

Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1193955. [PMID: 37434709 PMCID: PMC10332459 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1193955] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/13/2023] Open
Abstract
TrLipE is a thermophilic lipase that has potential commercial applications because of its catalytic ability under extreme conditions. Consistent with most lipases, the lid of TrLipE is located over the catalytic pocket, controls the substrate channel to the active center, and regulates the substrate specificity, activity, and stability of the enzyme through conformational changes. TrLipE from Thermomicrobium roseum has potential industrial applications, which is hindered by its weak enzymatic activity. Here, 18 chimeras (TrL1-TrL18) were reconstructed by N-terminal lid swapping between TrLipE and structurally similar enzymes. The results showed that the chimeras had a similar pH range and optimum pH as wild TrLipE but a narrower temperature range of 40-80°C, and TrL17 and the other chimeras showed lower optimum temperatures of 70°C and 60°C, respectively. In addition, the half-lives of the chimeras were lower than those of TrLipE under optimum temperature conditions. Molecular dynamics simulations indicated that chimeras had high RMSD, RMSF, and B-factor values. When p-nitrophenol esters with different chains were used as substrates, compared with TrLipE, most of the chimeras had a low Km and high kcat value. The chimeras TrL2, TrL3, TrL17, and TrL18 could specifically catalyze the substrate 4-nitrophenyl benzoate, with TrL17 showing the highest kcat/Km value of 363.88 ± 15.83 L⋅min-1⋅mmol-1. Mutants were then designed by investigating the binding free energies of TrL17 and 4-nitrophenyl benzoate. The results indicated that single, double, and triple substitution variants (M89W and I206N; E33W/I206M and M89W/I206M; and M89W/I206M/L21I and M89W/I206N/L21I, respectively) presented approximately 2- to 3-fold faster catalysis of 4-nitrophenyl benzoate than the wild TrL17. Our observations will facilitate the development of the properties and industrial applications of TrLipE.

Abstract
Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are an emerging choice to treat neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. They are triesters of glycerol and three medium-chain fatty acids, such as capric (C8) and caprylic (C10) acids. The availability of C8-C10 methyl esters (C8-C10 ME) from vegetable oil processes has presented an opportunity to use methyl esters as raw materials for the synthesis of MCTs. However, there are few reports on enzymes that can efficiently hydrolyse C8-C10 ME to industrial specifications. Here, we report the discovery and identification of a novel lipase from Lasiodiplodia theobromae fungus (LTL1), which hydrolyses C8-C10 ME efficiently. LTL1 can perform hydrolysis over pH ranges from 3.0 to 9.0 and maintain thermotolerance up to 70 °C. It has high selectivity for monoesters over triesters and displays higher activity over commercially available lipases for C8-C10 ME to achieve 96.17% hydrolysis within 31 h. Structural analysis by protein X-ray crystallography revealed LTL1's well-conserved lipase core domain, together with a partially resolved N-terminal subdomain and an inserted loop, which may suggest its hydrolytic preference for monoesters. In conclusion, our results suggest that LTL1 provides a tractable route towards to production of C8-C10 fatty acids from methyl esters for the synthesis of MCTs.

Abstract
The mechanism of active site loops of Streptomyces phospholipase D (PLD) binding to the lipid-water interface for catalytic reactions still remains elusive. A flexible loop (residues 376-382) in the active site of Streptomyces klenkii PLD (SkPLD) is conserved within PLDs in most of the Streptomyces species. The residue Ser380 was found to be essential for the enzyme's adsorption to the interface and its substrate recognition. The S380V mutant showed a 4.8 times higher catalytic efficiency and nearly seven times higher adsorption equilibrium coefficient compared to the wild-type SkPLD. The monolayer film technique has confirmed that the substitution of Ser380 with valine in the loop exhibited positive interaction between the enzyme and PCs with different acyl chain lengths. The results of the interfacial binding properties indicated that the S380V mutant might display suitable phosphatidylserine synthesis activity. The present study will be helpful to explain the role of residue 380 in the active site loops of Streptomyces PLD.

Abstract
In this study, a sn-1, 3 extracellular lipases from Aspergillus niger GZUF36 (PEXANL1) was expressed in Pichia pastoris, characterized, and the predicted structural model was analyzed. The optimized culture conditions of P. pastoris showed that the highest lipase activity of 66.5 ± 1.4 U/mL (P < 0.05) could be attained with 1% methanol and 96 h induction time. The purified PEXANL1 exhibited the highest activity at pH 4.0 and 40°C temperature, and its original activity remained unaltered in the majority of the organic solvents (20% v/v concentration). Triton X-100, Tween 20, Tween 80, and SDS at a concentration of 0.01% (w/v) enhanced, and all the metal ions tested inhibited activity of purified PEXANL. The results of ultrasound-assisted PEXANL1 catalyzed synthesis of 1,3-diaglycerides showed that the content of 1,3-diglycerides was rapidly increased to 36.90% with 25 min of ultrasound duration (P < 0.05) and later decreased to 19.93% with 35 min of ultrasound duration. The modeled structure of PEXANL1 by comparative modeling showed α/β hydrolase fold. Structural superposition and molecular docking results validated that Ser162, His274, and Asp217 residues of PEXANL1 were involved in the catalysis. Small-angle X-ray scattering analysis indicated the monomer properties of PEXANL1 in solution. The ab initio model of PEXANL1 overlapped with its modeling structure. This work presents a reliable structural model of A. niger lipase based on homology modeling and small-angle X-ray scattering. Besides, the data from this study will benefit the rational design of suitable crystalline lipase variants in the future.

Abstract
Thermomicrobium roseum sarcosine oxidase (TrSOX) was a N-demethylase with specific substrate chiral selectivity, outstanding thermostability and environmental resistance. To promote the expression of TrSOX in Bacillus subtilis W600, the HpaII promoter of pMA5 plasmid was replaced by constitutive or inducible promoters. Through orthogonal experiment, the expression process was optimized, B. subtilis W600 cells containing pMA5-Pxyl-trSOX plasmid were cultivated until OD600nm reached 2.0 and were then induced with 1.6% xylose at 37 °C for 2 h, and the native environment of T. roseum was simulated by heating at 80 °C, with the productivity of TrSOX increased from ~8.3 to ~66.7 μg/g wet cells; and the simulated high temperature was the key switch for the final folding. To reduce the surface hydrophobicity, a S320R mutant was built to form a hydrophilic lid around the entrance of the substrate pocket, and the yield of TrSOX (S320R) was ~163.0 μg/g wet cells, approximately 20 folds as that in the initial expression system. This mutant revealed the similar secondary structure, stability, resistance, chiral substrate selectivity and optimal reaction environment with wild type TrSOX; however, the N-demethylation activities for amino acid derivative substrates were dramatically increased, while those for hydrophobic non-amino acid compounds were repressed.

Abstract
Sn-1,3 extracellular Aspergillus niger GZUF36 lipase (EXANL1) has wide application potential in the food industry. However, the A. niger strain has defects such as easy degradation and instability in the expression of sn-1,3 lipase. To obtain a stable expression of this lipase and its subsequent enzymatic properties, the gene encoding EXANL1 was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells using pET-28a as the expression vector. The temperature-induced conditions were optimized, and we successfully achieved its active expression in E. coli. These conditions significantly influenced the active expression of EXANL1 (P < 0.05), and the highest enzyme activity of the supernatant of lysis cells expressed at 20 °C was at 7.02 ± 0.05 U/mL. The expressed recombinant EXANL1 was purified using Ni-NTA, showing an estimated relative molecular mass of 35 kDa. The recombinant EXANL1 exhibited maximum activity at 35 °C and pH 4.0, with a wide acid pH range. Thin-layer chromatography analysis showed that the enzyme displayed sn-1,3 positional selectivity toward triolein. The recombinant EXANL1 could maintain its relative activities (> 80%) after 24 h of incubation at pH 3-10, suggesting its suitability for a wide range of industrial applications. After comparing these properties with those of the other A. niger lipases, we found that some key amino acids may play a decisive role in enzymology. This work laid a foundation for the stable expression of the EXANL1 gene and its potential industrial application.
