To identify lipase LipA (PFL_0617) from Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5, a lipA deletion mutant (Pf0617) and a complementary strain (Pf0617lipA) were constructed, and their effects on the lipase production were examined. Pf0617 remarkably decreased its whole-cell lipase activity, whereas Pf0617lipA made its whole-cell lipase activity not only restore to wild-type level but also get a further increment. However, the deletion and overexpression of lipA did not affect the extracellular lipase activity. In addition, the unbroken whole cells of these strains were able to catalyze the hydrolysis of membrane-permeable p-nitrophenyl esters, but could not hydrolyze the membrane-impermeable olive oil. These results confirmed that LipA was an intracellular lipase and Pf-5 could also be used as a natural whole-cell biocatalyst. To evaluate the potential of Pf-5 as a whole-cell biocatalyst and separately characterize the whole-cell LipA, the properties of the whole-cell lipases from Pf-5 and Top10lipA were characterized. The results demonstrated that both Pf-5 and Top10lipA exhibited high tolerance to alkaline condition, high temperature, heavy metal ions, surfactants, and organic solvents. Taken together, lipA can realize functional expression in E. coli Top10, and Pf-5 and Top10lipA as whole-cell biocatalysts may have enormous potential in applications.

A 1, 2-diglyceride-based multi-step colorimetric assay to measure the pancreatic lipase activ-ity was applied for the determination of the kinetic profiles of the lipase inhibition with a slight modification and the validity verification. With this assay method, our study revealed that platy-codin D, one of major constituents of Platycodi Radix, inhibits the pancreatic lipase activity in a competitive type, with the value of $K_1$ being 0.18${\pm}$0.02 mM. In addition, PO has affected the val-ues of $K_{m}$, app/ and $K_{cat}$/$K_{m}$ in a dose-dependent manner. The results shed a meaningful light on how PO mediates lipid metabolism in the intestinal tracts. On the other hand, since the revised assay is sensitive, rapid, and does not affect the accuracy to the kinetic properties, it is applica-ble not only to evaluation of the kinetic properties of the pancreatic lipase, but also to high-throughput screening of pancreatic lipase activity.

담체로 사용된 polyurethane foam은 Rizopus chinensis의 균사가 부착하여 안정하게 증식할 수 있게 하였다. 고정화를 위해 사용된 네 종류의 polyurethane foam중 GP-160이 고정하ㅗ 매체로 우수한 성질을 보였고, 입자의 크기는 7-8mm가 적당하였다. Rizopus chinensis의 현탁 배양과 polyurethane foam에서의 고정화 배양을 비교할 때, 전체 리파아제의 활성도는 큰 변화가 없었지만, 고정화 배양의 경우 extracellualar lipase의 생성을 억제하여 intracellular lipase의 활성도를 현탁 배양의 경우보다 약 2배가량 높일 수가 있었다. 고정화 세포의 열안정성을 조사하기 위하여 35~$50^{\circ}C$사이에서 열에의한 비활성화 에너지값을 구해본 결과, 그 값이 28.7kcal/mol로서 본 연구에서 제조된 고정화 세포의 생촉매가 배교적 좋은 열안정성을 갖고 있다.

The strain S4-14 which produced alkaline lipase and had resistance against linear alkylbenzene sulfonate was isolated from soil or water samples. The isolated strain S4-14 was identified a species belong to Pseudomonas. Alkalin lipase secreted by Pseudomonas sp. S4-14 was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation procedure follwed by DEAE-Cellulose, DEAE-Sepharose and gel filtration chromatohraphies with 995.15 U/mg protein and 16.1% yield. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 65,000 dalton by SDS-PAGE. The optimum pH and temperature of the purified enzyme was 10.5 and 45$\circ $C, respectively. The emzyme was stable at 45$\circ $C for 1 hr and in a pH range from 8.0 to 12.0 for 24 hr at 4$\circ $C. The activity of lipase was enhanced by Ca$^{2+}$ while inhibited strongly by Pb$^{2+}$, Zn$^{2+}$ or Fe$^{3+}$. The activity of lipase was inactivated about 50~60% in the presence of 50 mg/l linear alkylbenzene sulfonate, $\alpha $-olefin sulfonate, alcohol ethoxylate or perborate.

천연식물에 광범위하게 존재하는 대표적인 페닐프로파노이드 화합물인 caffeic acid에 대해 배 유래의 polyphenol oxidase로 산화반응을 수행하여 상대적으로 높은 pancreatic lipase 저해 활성($IC_{50}$; $161.2{\pm}2.8{\mu}g/mL$)을 확인하였으며, 이는 caffeic acid와 비교하였을 경우 활성이 상승함을 알 수 있었다. Caffeic acid 산화반응물에 대해서 $C_{18}$ 겔을 활용한 column chromatography를 수행하여 4종의 리그난 화합물을 분리하였고, 각 화합물의 화학구조는 NMR 스펙트럼 데이터 해석 및 표품과의 HPLC 직접 비교를 통하여 phellinsin A(2), caffeicinic acid(3), isocaffeicinic acid(4), 7,8-erythro-caffeicin(5)으로 동정하였다. 이들 화합물중 phellinsin A(2)는 $IC_{50}$ 값이 $66.3{\pm}2.6{\mu}M$로 가장 강한 효능을 나타내었으며, 다음으로 caffeic acid 2분자의 산화 결합을 통해 생합성된 caffeicinic acid(3)의 $IC_{50}$ 값이 $109.6{\pm}3.7{\mu}M$의 저해능을 나타내었다. 배에 존재하는 polyphenol 산화효소에 의해 생합성된 caffeic acid 이량체가 pancreatic lipase 저해 활성 물질임을 확인하였으며, 이들 활성은 caffeic acid가 결합 양상에 따른 화합물의 구조에 따라 다름이 시사되었다. 향후 이들 활성물질의 활성 기작에 대한 연구가 필요하며 본 연구 결과는 보다 우수한 pancreatic lipase 저해능을 가지는 새로운 선도화합물 발굴을 위한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 항비만 물질의 상업화를 위한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

A muscle-specific lipase gene of the bumblebee Bombus ignitus was cloned and characterized. This gene, which we named Bi-Lipase, consists of seven exons encoding 317 amino acid residues. Bi-Lipase possesses all the features of lipases, including GXSXG consensus motif and Ser-Asp-His catalytic triad. Expressed as a 37-kDa polypeptide in baculovirus-infected insect Sf9 cells, recombinant Bi-Lipase showed an optimal pH of 9.0 and exhibited its highest catalytic activity at $40^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, through the addition of tunicamycin to the recombinant virus-infected Sf9 cells, recombinant Bi-Lipase was found to be N-glycosylated. Northern and western blot analyses indicated that Bi-Lipase was expressed in the wing, thorax, and leg muscles. These results show that Bi-Lipase is a muscle-specific lipase, suggesting a possible role of Bi-Lipase in the utilization of lipids for muscular activity in B. ignitus.

Lipase is a well-known and highly in-demand enzyme. During the last decade, several lipase optimization studies have been reported. However, production costs have always been a bottleneck for commercial-scale microbial enzyme production. This research aimed to optimize the conditions for lipase production by Limtongozyma siamensis DMKU-WBL1-3 via a One-Factor-At-a-Time (OFAT) approach combined with statistical methods while using a low-cost substrate. Results suggest that low-cost substrates can be substituted for all media components. An optimal medium was found, using response surface methodology (RSM) and central composite design (CCD), to consist of 0.50% (w/v) sweet whey, 0.40% (w/v) yeast extract (food grade), and 2.50% (v/v) palm oil with the medium pH adjusted to 4 under shaking flask cultivation. From an economic point of view, this work was successful in reducing production costs while increasing lipase productivity. The medium costs were reduced by 87.5% of the original cost while lipase activity was increased by nearly 6-fold. Moreover, lipase production was further studied in a 2-L stirred-tank fermentor. Its activity was 1,055.6 ± 0.0 U/ml when aeration and agitation rates were adjusted to 1 vvm and 170 rpm, respectively. Interestingly, under this optimal lipase production, the yeast showed accumulated lipids inside the cells. The primary fatty acid is a monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) that is typically linked to health benefits. This study hence reveals promising lipase production and lipid accumulation by L. siamensis DMKU-WBL1-3 that are worthy of further study.

Pseudomonas sp. lipase (lipase AK) catalyzed transesterification reaction between fructose and vinyl laurate in anhydrous pyridine. The product of this process was identified as monoester of fructose and vinyl laurate. The synthetic product has been found to be an excellent emulsifier. The synthetic bioemulsifier showed a good emulsification activity and stability in comparison with other commercial emulsifiers, and good emulsification activity on various emulsifying substrates.

A simple procedure for the extraction of the lipolytic enzyme from rice bran has been developed. High activity of lipolytic enzyme was obtained by first defatting the rice bran to remove lipid components with various extraction conditions. Then, after five cycles of aqueous extraction, rice bran lipolytic enzyme was purified using micro- and ultrafiltration apparatus. Lipolytic enzyme activity was estimated by its hydrolytic action of tributyrin. The result indicated that the standard activity curve of butyric acid showed that the potential rice bran enzyme is a hydrolytic lipase enzyme. In addition, it showed higher lipolytic activity and specific enzyme activity with further purification by micro- and ultrafiltration.
