cloning and sequencing of a lipase gene from an indigenous bacillus pumilus, strain f3, revealed an open-reading frame of 648 nucleotides predicted to encode a protein of 215 residues. sequence analysis showed that f3 lipase contained a signal peptide composed of 34 amino acids with an h domain of 18 residues. a tat-like motif was found in the signal peptide similar to some other bacillus pumil...

using enrichment procedures, 45 organic solvent-tolerant lipase producer bacterial strains were screened from areas contaminated by oil and organic solvents. among the strains, 15 isolates exhibited extreme stability toward organic solvents and high lipolytic activity. the neb-1 isolate which was later identified as   pseudomonas sp. strain neb-1 by biochemical tests and 16s rdna gene sequ...

The tremendous mounting interest in lipase production is pertinent to the biotechnological applications that these enzymes offer. Lipase, belonging to the hydrolyze enzymes, is involved in copious biological functions including: hydrolysis insoluble triacylglycerol to mono and diacylglycerols and glycerol. Submerge fermentation technique was applied for the efficient production of this. Briefly...

Efforts to express lipase in the periplasmic space of Escherichia coli have so far been unsuccessful andmost of the expressed recombinant lipases accumulate in the insoluble cell fraction. To evaluate the role ofnative and heterologous signal peptides in translocation of the lipase across the inner membrane of E. coli,the lipase gene (btl2) was cloned downstream of the native ...

Lipases have many applications in biotechnology, thanks to their ability of acylglycerides hydrolysis. They alsp possess the unique feature of acting at the lipid-water interface, which distinguishes them from esterases. Commercially useful lipases are produced by microorganisms with the extracellular lipase being produced by many bacteria including Pseudomonas. The greatest production of lipas...

conclusions results of this study could be used to find suitable targets for inverse metabolic engineering and site-directed mutagenesis to achieve stable and high-level extracellular lipase production in y. lipolytica and other yeasts. results two nucleotide substitutions were found in the extracellular lipase lip2 orfs of y. lipolytica u6 mutant strain compared to the wild-type strain. in thi...

pseudomonas aeruginosa ef2, atcc 9027 and atcc 19660 were grown in a continuous culture under tween 80 (polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate) limitation and optimum conditions (ph 6.5, 37°c at dilution rate of 0.05/h). culture supernatants were carefully removed and stored at -20°c. to purify the lipases, the culture supernatant was reduced in volume to approximately 10 ml by an ultrafiltration ...

aquatic animals are important resources for extraction of valuable compounds such as enzymes. in this study, lipase was extracted from the intestine of rainbow trout. samples were defatted with acetone several times; ammonium sulphate (60%) was used for precipitation followed by ultrafiltration for concentrating the samples. the final purification of the enzyme was performed by passing of the s...
