Overexpression of Recombinant Arylsulfatase Cloned from Pseudoalteromonas carrageenovora

Arylsulfatase cloned from a marine bacterium, Pseudoalteromonas carrageenovora, was over-expressed in Escherichia coli. Most of the recombinant arylsulfatase was found in the cell lysate with induction up to $10{\mu}M$ IPTG. However, enzyme activity was observed both in the culture supernatant and cell lysate by induction with IPTG concentration of $50-5,000{\mu}M$. Most of the recombinant enzyme was localized in the periplasmic space with $10{\mu}M$ IPTG induction, while half of the enzyme was distributed in the periplasmic space with $50{\mu}M$ IPTG induction. Cell growth and arylsulfatase activity did not change with the induction time, and the level of recombinant arylsulfatase expression was maintained at 4-5 U/mL after 6 to 14 hr of culture.
