Bacterial lipase holds an important role as a new source for many industrial catalysts. The investigation and understanding of the lipase-encoding gene become apparent as the key step for generating high-quality lipase as biocatalyst for many chemical reactions. In this study, bacterial lipase from Alcaligenes sp. JG3 was produced via overexpression gene method. This specific lipase was successfully overexpressed using pQE-30 vector and E. coli M15[pREP4] as host, producing His-tagged protein sized 46 kDa and was able to hydrolyze triacylglycerol from olive oil with the calculated unit activity and specific activity of 0.012 U and 1.175 U/mg respectively. The in silico investigation towards lipase JG3 revealed that it was categorized as ABC transporter protein as opposed to the conventional hydrolase family. Lastly, amino acid sequences SGSGKTT from lipase JG3 was highly conserved sequences and was predicted as the ATP-binding site but the catalytic triad of serine, histidine, and aspartate has not been solved yet.

b-Xylosidase encoding gene from G. thermoleovorans IT-08 had been expressed in the pHIS1525/ B. megaterium MS941 system. The b-xylosidase gene (xyl) was inserted into plasmid pHIS1525 and propagated in E. coli DH10b. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into B. megaterium MS941 by protoplast transformation. Transformants were selected by growing the recombinant cells on solid LB medium containing tetracycline (10 µg/ ml). The expression of the b-xylosidase gene was assayed by overlaid the recombinant B. megaterium MS941 cell with agar medium containing 0.2% ethylumbelliferyl-b-D-xyloside (MUX). This research showed that the b-xylosidase gene was succesfully sub-cloned in pHIS1525 system and expressed by the recombinant B. megaterium MS941. Theaddition of 0.5% xylose into the culture medium could increase the activity of recombinantactivity of recombinant of recombinantb-xylosidase by 2.74 fold. The recombinant B. megaterium MS941 secreted 75.56% of the expressed b-xylosidase into culture medium. The crude extract b-xylosidase showed the optimum activity at 50° C and pH 6. The recombinant b-xylosidase was purified from culture supernatant by affinity chromatographic method using agarose containing Ni-NTA (Nickel-Nitrilotriacetic acid). The pure b-xylosidase showed a specific activity of 10.06 Unit/mg protein and relative molecular weight ± 58 kDa.

A pimeloyl-CoA synthetase from Pseudomonas mendocina 35 was purified and characterized, the DNA sequence determined, and the gene cloned into Escherichia coli to yield an active enzyme. The purified enzyme had a pH optimum of ≈ 8.0, Km values of 0.49 mM for pimelic acid, 0.18 mM for CoA and 0.72 mM for ATP, a subunit Mr of ≈ 80000 as determined by SDS/PAGE, and was found to be a tetramer by gel-filtration chromatography. The specific activity of the purified enzyme was 77.3 units/mg of protein. The enzyme was not absolutely specific for pimelic acid. The relative activity for adipic acid (C6) was 72% and for azaleic acid (C9) was 18% of that for pimelic acid (C7). The N-terminal amino acid was blocked to amino acid sequencing, but controlled proteolysis resulted in three peptide fragments for which amino acid sequences were obtained. An oligonucleotide gene probe corresponding to one of the amino acid sequences was synthesized and used to isolate the gene (pauA, imelic cid-tilizing ) coding for pimeloyl-CoA synthetase. The pauA gene, which codes for a protein with a theoretical Mr of 74643, was then sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequence of the enzyme showed similarity to hypothetical proteins from Archaeoglobus fulgidus, Methanococcus jannaschii, Pyrococcus horikoshii, E. coli and Streptomyces coelicolor, and some limited similarity to microbial succinyl-CoA synthetases. The similarity with the protein from A. fulgidus was especially strong, thus indicating a function for this unidentified protein. The pauA gene was cloned into E. coli, where it was expressed and resulted in an active enzyme.

A xylanolytic bacterium was isolated from the sediment of an aquarium. Based on the 16S rDNA sequence as well as morphological and biochemical properties the isolate was identified and denoted asBacillus subtilis(B. subtilis) AQ1 strain. An endoxylanase-encoding gene along with its indigenous promoter was PCR amplified and after cloning expressed inE. coli. InE. colithe recombinant enzyme was found in the extracellular, in the cytoplasmic, and in the periplasmic fraction. The specific activity of the extracellular AQ1 recombinant endoxylanase after 24-hour fermentation was very high, namely,2173.6 ± 51.4and2745.3 ± 11 U/mg in LB and LB-xylan medium, respectively. This activity was clearly exceeding that of the nativeB. subtilisAQ1 endoxylanase and that of 95% homologous recombinant one fromB. subtilisDB104. The result shows that the original AQ1 endoxylanase promoter and the signal peptide gave a very high constitutive extracellular expression inE. coliand hence made the production inE. colifeasible.

ABSTRACT The gene coding for Penicillium amagasakiense glucose oxidase (GOX; β-d-glucose; oxygen 1-oxidoreductase [EC1.1.3.4 ]) has been cloned by PCR amplification with genomic DNA as template with oligonucleotide probes derived from amino acid sequences of N- and C-terminal peptide fragments of the enzyme. RecombinantEscherichia coli expression plasmids have been constructed from the heat-induced pCYTEXP1 expression vector containing the mature GOX coding sequence. When transformed into E. coli TG2, the plasmid directed the synthesis of 0.25 mg of protein in insoluble inclusion bodies per ml of E. coli culture containing more than 60% inactive GOX. Enzyme activity was reconstituted by treatment with 8 M urea and 30 mM dithiothreitol and subsequent 100-fold dilution to a final protein concentration of 0.05 to 0.1 mg ml−1 in a buffer containing reduced glutathione-oxidized glutathione, flavin adenine dinucleotide, and glycerol. Reactivation followed first-order kinetics and was optimal at 10°C. The reactivated recombinant GOX was purified to homogeneity by mild acidification and anion-exchange chromatography. Up to 12 mg of active GOX could be purified from a 1-liter E. coli culture. Circular dichroism demonstrated similar conformations for recombinant and native P. amagasakiense GOXs. The purified enzyme has a specific activity of 968 U mg−1 and exhibits kinetics of glucose oxidation similar to those of, but lower pH and thermal stabilities than, native GOX from P. amagasakiense. In contrast to the native enzyme, recombinant GOX is nonglycosylated and contains a single isoform of pI 4.5. This is the first reported expression of a fully active, nonglycosylated form of a eukaryotic, glycosylated GOX inE. coli.

AbstractAnaerobic fungi belonging to the family Neocallimastigaceae are native inhabitants in the rumen of the most herbivores, such as cattle, sheep and goats. A member of this unique group, Neocallimastix sp. GMLF2 was isolated from cattle feces and screened for its xylanase encoding gene using polymerase chain reaction. The gene coding for a xylanase (xyn2A) was cloned in Escherichia coli and expression was monitored. To determine the enzyme activity, assays were conducted for both fungal xylanase and cloned xylanase (Xyl2A) for supernatant and cell-associated activities. Optimum pH and temperature of the enzyme were found to be 6.5 and 50°C, respectively. The enzyme was stable at 40°C and 50°C for 20 min but lost most of its activity when temperature reached 60°C for 5-min incubation time. Rumen fungal xylanase was mainly released to the supernatant of culture, while cloned xylanase activity was found as cell-associated. Multiple alignment of the amino acid sequences of Xyl2A with published xylanases from various organisms suggested that Xyl2A belongs to glycoside hydrolase family 11.

Dipeptidyl peptidase II (DPP II; EC 3.4.14.2) from rat kidney was purified to a specific activity of 65.4µmol/min per mg of protein for Lys-Ala-β-naphthylamide. The N-terminal and partial amino acid sequences of the enzyme were determined. The peptide sequences were used to identify expressed sequence tag (EST) clones. By using the cDNA fragment of one of the EST clones as a probe, we isolated a cDNA clone with 1710bp encoding DPP II from a rat kidney cDNA library. The cDNA of rat DPP II contained an open reading frame of 1500bp, coding for a protein of 500 amino acids. The first 10 residues of the purified enzyme matched the deduced protein sequence starting with residue 37, suggesting the presence of a signal peptide. The mature enzyme (464 residues) had a calculated molecular mass of 51400Da, which was lower than the value (about 60000Da) determined by SDS/PAGE; and the deduced amino acid sequence showed six potential N-glycosylation sites. The deduced amino acid sequence of rat DPP II shared high similarity with quiescent-cell proline dipeptidase (78% identity) and prolyl carboxypeptidase (38% identity) and bore the putative catalytic triad (Ser, Asp, His) conserved in serine peptidase families. We transiently transfected COS-7 cells with pcDNA3.1 containing the cloned cDNA and obtained the overexpression of an immunoreactive protein (of about 60000Da). The transfected cells showed Lys-Ala-methylcoumarinamide-hydrolysing activity that was 50 times higher than the control cells.

Closely similar but nonidentical NH2-terminal amino acid sequences have been reported for a protein or proteins in human neutrophils whose bioactivities is/are diverse (as a serine protease, antibiotic, and Wegener's granulomatosis autoantigen) but that share(s) several features: localization in the azurophil granules, a molecular mass of approximately 29 kD, reactivity with diisopropylfluorophosphate, and the ability to degrade elastin. We previously purified one such entity, termed p29b. Using a monospecific antibody, we have cloned from human bone marrow a cDNA encoding the complete p29b protein in its mature form, along with pre- and pro-sequences. The predicted amino acid sequence agrees closely with the NH2-terminal sequence obtained previously from purified p29b, as well as with sequences newly obtained from CNBr fragments. The primary structure is highly homologous to elastase, cathepsin G, T cell granzymes, and other serine proteases, and shares both the catalytic triad and substrate binding pocket of elastase. Hybridization of the full-length cDNA with restriction enzyme digests of human genomic DNA revealed only one fragment. This suggests that the closely related species described previously are the same, and can be subsumed by the term used for the first-described activity, proteinase 3. Proteinase 3 is more abundant in neutrophils than elastase and has a similar proteolytic profile and specific activity. Thus, proteinase 3 may share the role previously attributed to neutrophil elastase in tissue damage, and has the potential to function as an antimicrobial agent.

Bacterial lipases have significant potential to be used as the biocatalyst for many chemical reactions. In this study, a novel gene encoding lipase was isolated from an Alcaligenes sp. JG3. A pair of designed primer has successfully isolated 1 kb (LipJG3) that shares 98% identity towards lipase from Alcaligenes faecalis during sequence analysis. By using in silico tools, LipJG3 was related to the transporter protein sequences. Three highly conserved regions consisting of EASGSKT, VILLD, and LSGGQQQRVAIA were found. These regions were known as ATP-binding signature at Walker-A and Walker-B motifs and the S signature of ABC transporter family respectively. In addition, the 3-D structure of LipJG3 has been suggested but the role of the catalytic triad residues have been not fully understood.

ABSTRACT The 2-nitrobenzoic acid degradation pathway of Pseudomonas fluorescens strain KU-7 proceeds via a novel 3-hydroxyanthranilate intermediate. In this study, we cloned and sequenced a 19-kb DNA locus of strain KU-7 that encompasses the 3-hydroxyanthranilate meta-cleavage pathway genes. The gene cluster, designated nbaEXHJIGFCDR, is organized tightly and in the same direction. The nbaC and nbaD gene products were found to be novel homologs of the eukaryotic 3-hydroxyanthranilate 3,4-dioxygenase and 2-amino-3-carboxymuconate-6-semialdehyde decarboxylase, respectively. The NbaC enzyme carries out the oxidation of 3-hydroxyanthranilate to 2-amino-3-carboxymuconate-6-semialdehyde, while the NbaD enzyme catalyzes the decarboxylation of the latter compound to 2-aminomuconate-6-semialdehyde. The NbaC and NbaD proteins were overexpressed in Escherichia coli and characterized. The substrate specificity of the 23.8-kDa NbaC protein was found to be restricted to 3-hydroxyanthranilate. In E. coli, this enzyme oxidizes 3-hydroxyanthranilate with a specific activity of 8 U/mg of protein. Site-directed mutagenesis experiments revealed the essential role of two conserved histidine residues (His52 and His96) in the NbaC sequence. The NbaC activity is also dependent on the presence of Fe2+ but is inhibited by other metal ions, such as Zn2+, Cu2+, and Cd2+. The NbaD protein was overproduced as a 38.7-kDa protein, and its specific activity towards 2-amino-3-carboxymuconate-6-semialdehyde was 195 U/mg of protein. Further processing of 2-aminomuconate-6-semialdehyde to pyruvic acid and acetyl coenzyme A was predicted to proceed via the activities of NbaE, NbaF, NbaG, NbaH, NbaI, and NbaJ. The predicted amino acid sequences of these proteins are highly homologous to those of the corresponding proteins involved in the metabolism of 2-aminophenol (e.g., AmnCDEFGH in Pseudomonas sp. strain AP-3). The NbaR-encoding gene is predicted to have a regulatory function of the LysR family type. The function of the product of the small open reading frame, NbaX, like the homologous sequences in the nitrobenzene or 2-aminophenol metabolic pathway, remains elusive.

Background: Bacterial lipases especially Pseudomonas lipases are extensively used for different biotechnological applications. Objectives: With the better understanding and progressive needs for improving its activity in accordance with the growing market demand, we aimed in this study to improve the recombinant production and biocatalytic activity of lipases via surface conjugation on gold nanoparticles. Methods: The full length coding sequences of lipase gene (lipA), lipase specific foldase gene (lipf) and dual cassette (lipAf) gene were amplified from the genomic DNA of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 and cloned into the bacterial expression vector pRSET-B. Recombinant lipases were expressed in E. coli BL-21 (DE3) pLysS then purified using nickel affinity chromatography and the protein identity was confirmed using SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis. The purified recombinant lipases were immobilized through surface conjugation with gold nanoparticles and enzymatic activity was colorimetrically quantified. Results: Here, two single expression plasmid systems pRSET-B-lipA and pRSET-B-lipf and one dual cassette expression plasmid system pRSET-B-lipAf were successfully constructed. The lipolytic activities of recombinant lipases LipA, Lipf and LipAf were 4870, 426 and 6740 IUmg-1, respectively. However, upon immobilization of these recombinant lipases on prepared gold nanoparticles (GNPs), the activities were 7417, 822 and 13035 IUmg-1, for LipA-GNPs, Lipf-GNPs and LipAf-GNPs, respectively. The activities after immobilization have been increased 1.52 and 1.93 -fold for LipA and LipAf, respectively. Conclusion: The lipolytic activity of recombinant lipases in the bioconjugate was significantly increased relative to the free recombinant enzyme where immobilization had made the enzyme attain its optimum performance.
