Abstract
The Geobacillus zalihae strain T1 produces a thermostable T1 lipase that could be used for industrial purposes. Previously, the GST-T1 lipase was purified through two chromatographic steps: affinity and ion exchange (IEX) but the recovery yield was only 33%. To improve the recovery yield to over 80%, the GST tag from the pGEX system was replaced with a poly-histidine at the N-terminal of the T1 lipase sequence. The novel construct of pGEX/His-T1 lipase was developed by site-directed mutagenesis, where the XbaI restriction site was introduced upstream of the GST tag, allowing the removal of tag via double digestion using XbaI and EcoRI (existing cutting site in the pGEX system). Fragment of 6 × His-T1 lipase fusion was synthesized, cloned into the pGEX4T1 system, and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) pLysS, resulting in lipase-specific activity at 236 U/mg. The single purification step of His-T1 lipase was successfully achieved using nickel Sepharose 6FF with an optimized concentration of 5 mM imidazole for binding, yielding the recovery of 98%, 1,353 U/mg lipase activity, and a 5.7-fold increase in purification fold. His-T1 lipase was characterized and was found to be stable at pH 5-9, active at 70 °C, and optimal at pH 9.

Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2023; 107:1673-1686. [PMID: 36752811 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-023-12396-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2022] [Revised: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023]
Abstract
Lipase biocatalysts offer unique properties which are often impaired by low thermal and methanol stability. In this study, the rational design was employed to engineer a disulfide bond in the protein structure of Geobacillus zalihae T1 lipase in order to improve its stability. The selection of targeted disulfide bond sites was based on analysis of protein spatial configuration and change of Gibbs free energy. Two mutation points (S2C and A384C) were generated to rigidify the N-terminal and C-terminal regions of T1 lipase. The results showed the mutant 2DC lipase improved methanol stability from 35 to 40% (v/v) after 30 min of pre-incubation. Enhancement in thermostability for the mutant 2DC lipase at 70 °C and 75 °C showed higher half-life at 70 °C and 75 °C for 30 min and 52 min, respectively. The mutant 2DC lipase maintained the same optimum temperature (70 °C) as T1 lipase, while thermally induced unfolding showed the mutant maintained higher rigidity. The kcat/Km values demonstrated a relatively small difference between the T1 lipase (WT) and 2DC lipase (mutant). The kcat/Km (s-1 mM-1) of the T1 and 2DC showed values of 13,043 ± 224 and 13,047 ± 312, respectively. X-ray diffraction of 2DC lipase crystal structure with a resolution of 2.04 Å revealed that the introduced single disulfide bond did not lower initial structural interactions within the residues. Enhanced methanol and thermal stability are suggested to be strongly related to the newly disulfide bridge formation and the enhanced compactness and rigidity of the mutant structure. KEY POINTS: • Protein engineering via rational design revealed relative improved enzymatic performance. • The presence of disulfide bond impacts on the rigidity and structural function of proteins. • X-ray crystallography reveals structural changes accompanying protein modification.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Thermotolerant microbes are a group of microorganisms that survive in elevated temperatures. The thermotolerant microbes, which are found in geothermal heat zones, grow at temperatures of or above 45°C. The proteins present in such microbes are optimally active at these elevated temperatures. Hence, therefore, serves as an advantage in various biotechnological applications. In the last few years, scientists have tried to understand the molecular mechanisms behind the maintenance of the structural integrity of the cell and to study the stability of various thermotolerant proteins at extreme temperatures. Proteomic analysis is the solution for this search. Applying novel proteomic tools determines the proteins involved in the thermostability of microbes at elevated temperatures. METHODS Advanced proteomic techniques like Mass spectrometry, nano-LC-MS, protein microarray, ICAT, iTRAQ, and SILAC could enable the screening and identification of novel thermostable proteins. RESULTS This review provides up-to-date details on the protein signature of various thermotolerant microbes analyzed through advanced proteomic tools concerning relevant research articles. The protein complex composition from various thermotolerant microbes cultured at different temperatures, their structural arrangement, and functional efficiency of the protein was reviewed and reported. CONCLUSION This review provides an overview of thermotolerant microbes, their enzymes, and the proteomic tools implemented to characterize them. This article also reviewed a comprehensive view of the current proteomic approaches for protein profiling in thermotolerant microbes.

[PMID: 34061877 PMCID: PMC8168862 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0251751] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2020] [Accepted: 05/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
5M mutant lipase was derived through cumulative mutagenesis of amino acid residues (D43E/T118N/E226D/E250L/N304E) of T1 lipase from Geobacillus zalihae. A previous study revealed that cumulative mutations in 5M mutant lipase resulted in decreased thermostability compared to wild-type T1 lipase. Multiple amino acids substitution might cause structural destabilization due to negative cooperation. Hence, the three-dimensional structure of 5M mutant lipase was elucidated to determine the evolution in structural elements caused by amino acids substitution. A suitable crystal for X-ray diffraction was obtained from an optimized formulation containing 0.5 M sodium cacodylate trihydrate, 0.4 M sodium citrate tribasic pH 6.4 and 0.2 M sodium chloride with 2.5 mg/mL protein concentration. The three-dimensional structure of 5M mutant lipase was solved at 2.64 Å with two molecules per asymmetric unit. The detailed analysis of the structure revealed that there was a decrease in the number of molecular interactions, including hydrogen bonds and ion interactions, which are important in maintaining the stability of lipase. This study facilitates understanding of and highlights the importance of hydrogen bonds and ion interactions towards protein stability. Substrate specificity and docking analysis on the open structure of 5M mutant lipase revealed changes in substrate preference. The molecular dynamics simulation of 5M-substrates complexes validated the substrate preference of 5M lipase towards long-chain p-nitrophenyl-esters.

Abstract
Mutant of lipase at oxyanion hole (H110 F) was constructed. The gene was highly expressed in Eschericia coli BL21 (DE3) and the recombinant protein was purified using Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. The activity of mutant enzyme was significantly increased compared to that the wild type. Further comparison showed that both of the enzymes exhibited same optimum pH and temperature, and showed highest lipolytic activity on pNP-decanoate (C10). The wild type appeared lost of activity on C14 and C16 substrates meanwhile the mutant still showed activity up to 20 %. In the presence of non polar organic solvent such as n-hexane, the wild type became inactive enzyme meanwhile the mutant still remained 50 % of its activity. The results suggested that mutation at oxyanion hole (H110 F) caused enzyme-substrate interaction change resulting on elevation of activity, better activity toward longer carbon chain substrate and improving the activity in the present of non polar organic solvent.

Abstract
Microorganisms, especially those that survive in extremely cold places such as Antarctica, have gained research attention since they produce a unique feature of the protein, such as being able to withstand at extreme temperature, salinity, and pressure, that make them desired for biotechnological application. Here, we report the first hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL)-like esterase from a Glaciozyma species, a psychrophilic yeast designated as GlaEst12-like esterase. In this study, the putative lipolytic enzyme was cloned, expressed in E. coli, purified, and characterised for its biochemical properties. Protein sequences analysis showed that GlaEst12 shared about 30% sequence identity with chain A of the bacterial hormone-sensitive lipase of E40. It belongs to the H group since it has the conserved motifs of Histidine-Glycine-Glycine-Glycine (HGGG)and Glycine-Aspartate-Serine-Alanine-Glycine (GDSAG) at the amino acid sequences. The recombinant GlaEst12 was successfully purified via one-step Ni-Sepharose affinity chromatography. Interestingly, GlaEst12 showed unusual properties with other enzymes from psychrophilic origin since it showed an optimal temperature ranged between 50–60 °C and was stable at alkaline pH conditions. Unlike other HSL-like esterase, this esterase showed higher activity towards medium-chain ester substrates rather than shorter chain ester. The 3D structure of GlaEst12, predicted by homology modelling using Robetta software, showed a secondary structure composed of mainly α/β hydrolase fold, with the catalytic residues being found at Ser232, Glu341, and His371.

Abstract
In recent years, studies on psychrophilic lipases have become an emerging area of research in the field of enzymology. The study described here focuses on the cold-adapted organic solvent tolerant lipase strain Pseudomonas sp. LSK25 isolated from Signy Station, South Orkney Islands, maritime Antarctic. Strain LSK25 lipase was successfully cloned, sequenced, and over-expressed in an Escherichia coli system. Sequence analysis revealed that the lipase gene of Pseudomonas sp. LSK25 consists of 1432 bp, lacks an N-terminal signal peptide and encodes a mature protein consisting of 476 amino acids. The recombinant LSK25 lipase was purified by single-step purification using Ni-Sepharose affinity chromatography and had a molecular mass of approximately 65 kDa. The final recovery and purification fold were 44% and 1.3, respectively. The LSK25 lipase was optimally active at 30 °C and at pH 6. Stable lipolytic activity was reported between temperatures of 5–30 °C and at pH 6–8. A significant enhancement of lipolytic activity was observed in the presence of Ca2+ ions, the organic lipids of rice bran oil and coconut oil, a synthetic C12 ester and a wide range of water immiscible organic solvents. Overall, lipase strain LSK25 is a potentially desirable candidate for biotechnological application, due to its stability at low temperatures, across a range of pH and in organic solvents.

Biophysical characterization of a recombinant lipase KV1 from Acinetobacter haemolyticus in relation to pH and temperature. Biochimie 2018; 152:198-210.

Abstract
Spectroscopic and calorimetric methods were employed to assess the stability and the folding aspect of a novel recombinant alkaline-stable lipase KV1 from Acinetobacter haemolyticus under varying pH and temperature. Data on far ultraviolet-circular dichroism of recombinant lipase KV1 under two alkaline conditions (pH 8.0 and 12.0) at 40 °C reveal strong negative ellipticities at 208, 217, 222 nm, implying its secondary structure belonging to a α + β class with 47.3 and 39.0% ellipticity, respectively. Results demonstrate that lipase KV1 adopts its most stable conformation at pH 8.0 and 40 °C. Conversely, the protein assumes a random coil structure at pH 4.0 and 80 °C, evident from a strong negative peak at ∼ 200 nm. This blue shift suggests a general decline in enzyme activity in conjunction with the partially or fully unfolded state that invariably exposed more hydrophobic surfaces of the lipase protein. The maximum emission at ∼335 nm for pH 8.0 and 40 °C indicates the adoption of a favorable protein conformation with a high number of buried tryptophan residues, reducing solvent exposure. Appearance of an intense Amide I absorption band at pH 8.0 corroborates an intact secondary structure. A lower enthalpy value for pH 4.0 over pH 8.0 and 12.0 in the differential scanning calorimetric data corroborates the stability of the lipase at alkaline conditions, while a low Km (0.68 ± 0.03 mM) for tributyrin verifies the high affinity of lipase KV1 for the substrate. The data, herein offer useful insights into future structure-based tunable catalytic activity of lipase KV1.

Abstract
Lipase plays an important role in industrial and biotechnological applications. Lipases have been subject to modification at the N and C terminals, allowing better understanding of lipase stability and the discovery of novel properties. A thermotolerant lipase has been isolated from Antarctic Pseudomonas sp. The purified Antarctic AMS3 lipase (native) was found to be stable across a broad range of temperatures and pH levels. The lipase has a partial Glutathione-S-transferase type C (GST-C) domain at the N-terminal not found in other lipases. To understand the influence of N-terminal GST-C domain on the biochemical and structural features of the native lipase, the deletion of the GST-C domain was carried out. The truncated protein was successfully expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3). The molecular weight of truncated AMS3 lipase was approximately ~45 kDa. The number of truncated AMS3 lipase purification folds was higher than native lipase. Various mono and divalent metal ions increased the activity of the AMS3 lipase. The truncated AMS3 lipase demonstrated a similarly broad temperature range, with the pH profile exhibiting higher activity under alkaline conditions. The purified lipase showed a substrate preference for a long carbon chain substrate. In addition, the enzyme activity in organic solvents was enhanced, especially for toluene, Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), chloroform and xylene. Molecular simulation revealed that the truncated lipase had increased structural compactness and rigidity as compared to native lipase. Removal of the N terminal GST-C generally improved the lipase biochemical characteristics. This enzyme may be utilized for industrial purposes.

Biodiesel production from lipid of carbon dioxide sequestrating bacterium and lipase of psychrotolerant Pseudomonas sp. ISTPL3 immobilized on biochar. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2017; 245:743-750. [PMID: 28918245 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2017.08.194] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2017] [Revised: 08/24/2017] [Accepted: 08/29/2017] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
An extracellular lipase was purified and characterized from psychrotolerant bacterium Pseudomonas sp. ISTPL3 isolated from Pangong lake. Lipase was purified by sequential methods of ammonium sulphate precipitation, dialysis, DEAE-cellulose ion exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel filtration chromatography, resulting in a purification fold of 6.53 and yield of 5.45%. The molecular weight was approximately 31kDa. The purified lipase was used for transesterification of lipids produced by oleaginous chemolithotrophic bacterium Serratia sp. ISTD04 for production of biodiesel. Upon biochemical characterization, lipase was found to be alkalophilc, thermostable, active in organic polar solvents and sensitive to detergents. Further, lipase was immobilized on activated biochar to assess its transesterification efficiency during biodiesel production. Immobilized lipase gave the highest yield of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) (92.23%)>unimmobilized lipase>NaOH. The immobilized lipase was assessed for its reusability and retained 75.11% of its activity after 3 cycles of biodiesel production.

Identification of lipolytic enzymes isolated from bacteria indigenous to Eucalyptus wood species for application in the pulping industry. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2017; 15:114-124. [PMID: 28794998 PMCID: PMC5545822 DOI: 10.1016/j.btre.2017.07.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 56] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2017] [Revised: 06/21/2017] [Accepted: 07/11/2017] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Phenol red screening plates is the best method for detecting lipolytic activity. Substrate specificity is affected by temperature and pH. Essential to test substrates at various pH and temperature to determine optima. Lipolytic enzymes indigenous to Eucalyptus sp. can assist in pitch control.
This study highlights the importance of determining substrate specificity at variable experimental conditions. Lipases and esterases were isolated from microorganisms cultivated from Eucalyptus wood species and then concentrated (cellulases removed) and characterized. Phenol red agar plates supplemented with 1% olive oil or tributyrin was ascertained to be the most favourable method of screening for lipolytic activity. Lipolytic activity of the various enzymes were highest at 45–61 U/ml at the optimum temperature and pH of between at 30–35 °C and pH 4–5, respectively. Change in pH influenced the substrate specificity of the enzymes tested. The majority of enzymes tested displayed a propensity for longer aliphatic acyl chains such as dodecanoate (C12), myristate (C14), palmitate (C16) and stearate (C18) indicating that they could be characterised as potential lipases. Prospective esterases were also detected with specificity towards acetate (C2), butyrate (C4) and valerate (C5). Enzymes maintained up to 95% activity at the optimal pH and temperature for 2–3 h. It is essential to test substrates at various pH and temperature when determining optimum activity of lipolytic enzymes, a method rarely employed. The stability of the enzymes at acidic pH and moderate temperatures makes them excellent candidates for application in the treatment of pitch during acid bi-sulphite pulping, which would greatly benefit the pulp and paper industry.
