Abstract
The search for new effective strains-producers of enzymes and biologically active substances for the development of new environmentally friendly plant protection products against phytopathogens is a very urgent task for the greening of agriculture. In our work, we used active strains of gram-positive spore-forming bacteria isolated from soil near the roadside zone of the Belgorod region to assess their antagonistic activity to phytopathogens and biotechnological potential. In the course of molecular genetic studies of the 16S rRNA gene of the isolated native strain, a complete similarity of the target with Bacillus subtilis was revealed. When studying morphological and cultural characteristics, it was determined that the cells of the target strain are rod-shaped, arranged singly or in pairs.The conditions of cultivation of the bacterium were revealed, which shows high growth in the composition of the medium containing 3% peptone for 20 hours, the specific increase in biomass exceeded 96%. When evaluating the antagonistic activity, it was revealed that the isolated strain suppresses the growth of cultures of Escherichia coli O157:H7, Aspergillus unguis VKM F-1754 and bacteria of the genus Ralstonia.

Abstract
The esterase PTCL1-EstA from Paenarthrobacter aurescens TC1 was expressed in Escherichia coli and characterized. An 1152 bp open reading frame encoding a 383 amino acid polypeptide was successfully expressed, the C-terminally His6-tagged PTCL1-EstA enzyme was purified, and the predicted molecular mass of the purified PTCL1-EstA was 40.6 kDa. The EstA family serine hydrolase PTCL1-EstA belongs to the esterase family VIII, contains esterase-labeled S-C-S-K sequences, and homologous class C beta-lactamase sequences. PTCL1-EstA favored p-nitrophenyl esters with C2-C6 chain lengths, but it was also able to hydrolyze long-chain p-nitrophenyl esters. Homology modelling and substrate docking predicted that Ser59 was an active site residue in PTCL1-EstA, as well as Tyr148, Ala325, and Asp323, which are critical in catalyzing the enzymatic reaction of p-nitrophenyl esters. PTCL1-EstA reached the highest specific activity against p-nitrophenyl butyrate (C4) at pH 7.0 and 45 °C but revealed better thermal stability at 40 °C and maintained high relative enzymatic activity and stability at pH 5.0–9.0. Fermentation medium optimization for PTCL1-EstA increased the enzyme activity to 510.76 U/mL, tapping the potential of PTCL1-EstA for industrial production.

Abstract
A new bacterial carboxylesterase (CarEst3) was identified by genome mining and found to efficiently hydrolyze racemic methyl 3-cyclohexene-1-carboxylate (rac-CHCM) with a nearly symmetric structure for the synthesis of (S)-CHCM. CarEst3 displayed a high substrate tolerance and a stable catalytic performance. The enantioselective hydrolysis of 4.0 M (560 g·L-1) rac-CHCM was accomplished, yielding (S)-CHCM with a >99% ee, a substrate to catalyst ratio of 1400 g·g-1, and a space-time yield of 538 g·L-1·d-1.

Abstract
A novel esterase, EstD11, has been discovered in a hot spring metagenomic library. It is a thermophilic and thermostable esterase with an optimum temperature of 60°C. A detailed substrate preference analysis of EstD11 was done using a library of chromogenic ester substrate that revealed the broad substrate specificity of EstD11 with significant measurable activity against 16 substrates with varied chain length, steric hindrance, aromaticity and flexibility of the linker between the carboxyl and the alcohol moiety of the ester. The tridimensional structures of EstD11 and the inactive mutant have been determined at atomic resolutions. Structural and bioinformatic analysis, confirm that EstD11 belongs to the family IV, the hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) family, from the α/β-hydrolase superfamily. The canonical α/β-hydrolase domain is completed by a cap domain, composed by two subdomains that can unmask of the active site to allow the substrate to enter. Eight crystallographic complexes were solved with different substrates and reaction products that allowed identification of the hot-spots in the active site underlying the specificity of the protein. Crystallization and/or incubation of EstD11 at high temperature provided unique information on cap dynamics and a first glimpse of enzymatic activity in vivo. Very interestingly, we have discovered a unique Met zipper lining the active site and the cap domains that could be essential in pivotal aspects as thermo-stability and substrate promiscuity in EstD11.

Abstract
Enzyme-mediated esterification reactions can be a promising alternative to produce esters of commercial interest, replacing conventional chemical processes. The aim of this work was to verify the potential of an esterase for ester synthesis. For that, recombinant lipolytic enzyme EST5 was purified and presented higher activity at pH 7.5, 45 °C, with a Tm of 47 °C. Also, the enzyme remained at least 50% active at low temperatures and exhibited broad substrate specificity toward p-nitrophenol esters with highest activity for p-nitrophenyl valerate with a Kcat/Km of 1533 s−1 mM−1. This esterase exerted great properties that make it useful for industrial applications, since EST5 remained stable in the presence of up to 10% methanol and 20% dimethyl sulfoxide. Also, preliminary studies in esterification reactions for the synthesis of methyl butyrate led to a specific activity of 127.04 U·mg−1. The enzyme showed higher esterification activity compared to other literature results, including commercial enzymes such as LIP4 and CL of Candida rugosa assayed with butyric acid and propanol which showed esterification activity of 86.5 and 15.83 U·mg−1, respectively. In conclusion, EST5 has potential for synthesis of flavor esters, providing a concept for its application in biotechnological processes.

Abstract
Lipases are one of the most used enzymes in the pharmaceutical industry due to their efficiency in organic syntheses, mainly in the production of enantiopure drugs. From an industrial viewpoint, the selection of an efficient expression system and host for recombinant lipase production is highly important. The most used hosts are Escherichia coli and Komagataella phaffii (previously known as Pichia pastoris) and less often reported Bacillus and Aspergillus strains. The use of efficient expression systems to overproduce homologous or heterologous lipases often require the use of strong promoters and the co-expression of chaperones. Protein engineering techniques, including rational design and directed evolution, are the most reported strategies for improving lipase characteristics. Additionally, lipases can be immobilized in different supports that enable improved properties and enzyme reuse. Here, we review approaches for strain and protein engineering, immobilization and the application of lipases in the pharmaceutical industry.
