Abstract:

In order to excavate thermo-alkaline lipases from bacterial living in extreme conditions, we try to express new gene from Thermosyntropha lipolytica DSM 11003, an anaerobic, thermophilic, alkali-tolerant bacterium which grows in alkaline hot springs Lake Bogoria in Kenya and explore its application in biodiesel production. The lipase gene (tll1) of 1434 bp were ligated at the Nco I / EcoR I sites of the expression vectors pET28a to yield the construct of pET28a-TLL1. The strain harboring pET28a-TLL1 was cultivated for expression at 25℃, the specific activity of 1.99 U/mg protein were detected in disrupted cells. The recombinant lipase TlLipA was purified by a simple two-step procedure involving heat treatment and Ni-chelating affinity chromatography. The subunit of purified TlLipA showed a molecular mass of 53×103 on 12% sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The purified TlLipA exhibited optimal activity at 65℃ and pH 8.0 and it was stable from 55℃ to 65℃. The enzyme remained above 80% of its original activity at pH ranging from 7.0 to 11.0 and at room temperature for 1 h. The activity of TlLipA was little unaffected by Co2+, K+, Na+, and Ni2+, and a little activated by Mg2+ and Mn2+, but were significantly inhibited by Zn2+, Fe3+, and SDS, and Tween 80 under the assay conditions. The purified recombinant TlLipA had a specific activity of 22.11 U/mg protein using p-nitrophenyl palmitate (p-NPP) as substrate. Determined by Sigma-Plot of reaction rate on p-NPP, the Km was 0.23 mmol/L, the Vmax was 33.50 mmol/(L·min), and the kcat was 22.83 s-1. The enzyme was also active towards p-NPP, p-nitrophenyl laurate (p-NPL), p-nitrophenyl myristate (p-NPM) and p-nitrophenyl caproate (p-NPC), moreover TlLipA exhibited a strong preference for p-nitrophenol decanoate (p-NPD) and p-nitrophenyl octoate (p-NPO). Using recombinant lipase as a catalyst to prepare biodiesel in a solvent-free system, with a water content of 20%, an enzyme dosage of 200 U/g oil, and an alcohol-to-oil ratio of 4∶1, catalyzed soybean oil reaction at 55℃ for 48 h, the yield can reach 91.75%.

摘要:

将来源于解脂嗜热互营杆菌(Thermosyntropha lipolytica)的脂肪酶(TlLipA)基因tll1导入大肠杆菌BL21(DE3)中表达,通过热处理和镍柱亲和层析获得纯酶,并对其酶学性质进行研究。十二烷基硫酸钠-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳(SDS-PAGE)显示TlLipA分子量为53×103,其最适反应温度为65℃,最适反应pH为8.0。在55~65℃范围内酶活较高且比较稳定;在pH7.0~11.0于室温保存1 h后,残留相对酶活仍达80%以上。1 mmol/L 金属离子Zn2+、Fe3+和试剂SDS,0.05%(质量分数)Tween 80,对酶活力具有强烈的抑制作用,残留相对酶活皆低于15%;1 mmol/L Mg2+、Mn2+对酶活力表现出轻微的激活作用。由底物专一性实验可得,该酶对辛酸对硝基苯酯(C8)和癸酸对硝基苯酯(C10)偏好明显。以棕榈酸对硝基苯酯(p-NPP)为底物,该酶动力学参数Km值为0.23 mmol/L,Vmax为33.50 mmol/(L·min),kcat为22.83 S-1。以重组脂肪酶为催化剂在无溶剂体系中制备生物柴油,含水率20%,酶加量200 U/g油,醇油比为4∶1的条件下,在55℃催化大豆油反应48 h,收率可达91.75%。
