Lipase production and characterization of this strain were investigated under different conditions. The Pseudomonas was cultivated in shaking flasks in a fermentation medium in various nutritional and physical environments. Lipase production has been influenced by the presence of yeast-extract, soybean powder, NaCI, and Tween-80. Maximum lipase productivity was obtained when the physical environment of the fermentation medium was optimal for 67 h. The production of lipase reached 58.9 U·mL^-1. The lipase of Pseudomonas Lip35 can be considered to be inducible, but the inducer had little influence on the production of lipase. The lipase was characterized and showed high lipolytic activity from pH 7.5-8.0. The optimum temperature was observed at 20℃ and the thermal inactivation of lipase was obvious at 60℃. The lipase activity was inhibited by K+, stimulated by Ca^2+, and thermostability decreased in the presence of Ca^2+, therefore the lipase was Ca^2+ -dependent cold-adapted enzyme.展开更多

The sequence data have been deposited in the GenBank and EMBL data bank with the accession number EU414288. The nucleotide sequence showed a major open reading frame encoding a 59-kDa protein of 566 amino acid residues, which contained a lipase consensus sequence GXSXG. The lipase lip had 74 and 70% homologies with the lipases of an uncultured bacterium and P. fluorescens PfO-1, respectively, but it did not show any overall homology with lipases from other origins. The functional lipase was obtained when the lip gene was expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115.展开更多

We described a novel polymer-lipase conjugate for high-efficient esterification of vitamin E using vitamin E and succinic anhydride as the substrates in nonaqueous media.In this work,the monomer,N-isopropylacrylamide(...We described a novel polymer-lipase conjugate for high-efficient esterification of vitamin E using vitamin E and succinic anhydride as the substrates in nonaqueous media.In this work,the monomer,N-isopropylacrylamide(NIPAM),was grafted onto Candida rugosa lipase(CRL)to synthesize poly(NIPAM)(pNIPAM)-CRL conjugate by atom transfer radical polymerization via the initiator coupled on the surface of CRL.The result showed that the catalytic efficiencies of pNIPAM-CRL conjugates(19.5-30.3 L·s^(-1)·mmol^(-1))were at least 7 times higher than that of free CRL(2.36 L·s^(-1)·mmol^(-1))in DMSO.It was attributed to a significant increase in Kcat of the conjugates in nonaqueous media.The synthesis catalyzed by pNIPAM-CRL co njugates was influenced by the length and density of the grafted polymer,water content,solvent polarity and molar ratio of the substrates.In the optimal synthesis,the reaction time was shortened at least 7 times,and yields of vitamin E succinate by pNIPAM-g-CRL and free CRL were obtained to be 75.4%and 6.6%at 55℃after the reaction for 1.5 h.The result argued that conjugation with pNIPAM induced conformational change of the lid on CRL based on hydrophobic interaction,thus providing a higher possibility of catalysis-favorable conformation on CRL in nonaqueous media.Moreover,pNIPAM conjugation improved the thermal stability of CRL greatly,and the stability improved further with an increase of chain length of pNIPAM.At the optimal reaction conditions(55℃and 1.5 h),pNIPAM-g-CRL also exhibited good reusability in the enzymatic synthesis of vitamin E succinate and kept~70%of its catalytic activity after ten consecutive cycles.The research demonstrated that pNIPAM-g-CRL was a more competitive biocatalyst in the enzymatic synthesis of vitamin E succinate and exhibited good application potential under harsh industrial conditions.展开更多

T herefore, the aim of this research was to explore whether there exist any bound lipases in rice bran(Oryza sativa). Three physical treatments(grinding, homogenizing and ultrasound crush)and 6 enzymatic treatments(cellulase, hemicellulase, pectinase, complex cellulase, glucoamylase and α-amylase)were applied to rice bran in order to investigate this bound lipase. The relative catalytic activities of extraction supernatant and residue for pectinase group were(437.63 ± 22.54)% and(159.26 ± 2.12)%, respectively, which were significantly higher(P < 0.05)than other groups. This phenomenon demonstrated that lipase was the most likely to combine with pectin. Molecular simulation proved that pectin could combine with two rice bran lipases(lipase 315 and lipase 308)and cover the catalytic centers so as to prevent the lipases from encountering the substrate and inhibiting their catalytic activities. During combination, pectin could make the lipases more compact and reduce the solvent accessible surface area of lipases, which would make the lipases inactive to molecular interaction. In summary, part of rice bran lipase was proved to exist in bound form and combined with the pectin.展开更多

However, the heart is incapable of making this substrate and attains its FAs from multiple sources, including the action of lipoprotein lipase (LPL). LPL is produced in cardiomyocytes and subsequently secreted to its heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) binding sites on the plasma membrane. To then move LPL to the endothelial cell (EC) lumen, glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored high-density lipoprotein-binding protein 1 (GPIHBP1) attaches to interstitial LPL and transfers it to the vascular lumen, where the LPL is ready to perform its function of breaking down circulating triglycerides (TG) into FAs. The endo-β-glucuronidase heparanase (Hpa) is unique in that it is the only known mammalian enzyme to cleave heparan sulfate (HS), thereby promoting the abovementioned release of LPL from the cardiomyocyte HSPG. In diabetes, it has been suggested that changes in how the heart generates energy are responsible for the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Following moderate diabetes, with the reduction in glucose utilization, the heart increases its LPL activity at the vascular lumen due to an increase in Hpa action. Although this adaptation might be beneficial to compensate for the underutilization of glucose by the heart, it is toxic over the long term, as harmful lipid metabolite accumulation, along with augmented FA oxidation and thus oxidative stress, leads to cell death. This coincides with the loss of a cardioprotective growth factor—namely, vascular endothelial growth factor B (VEGFB). This review discusses interconnections between Hpa, LPL, and VEGFB and their potential implications in DCM. Given that mechanism-based therapeutic care for DCM is unavailable, understanding the pathology of this cardiomyopathy, along with the contribution of LPL, will help us advance its clinical management.展开更多

Methods: The lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene was screened for mutations in 386 Chinese subjects with (108 cases in the HTG group) or without HTG (278 cases in the control group), by single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis and DNA sequencing. Results: One novel silent mutation L103L, one missense mutation P207L, three splicing mutations Int3/3' -ass/C(-6)→T, and the common S447X polymorphism has been identified in the whole coding region and exon-intron junctions of the LPL gene were examined. Heterozygous P207L found in the HTG group was the first case reported in Asia and subsequently another P207L heterozygote was found in the proband's family, all of which suggested that P207L was one of the causes of familial combined hyperlipidemia, but was not so prevalent as that in French Canadian. Int3/3'-ass/C(-6)→T was found in both groups in the present study although it was regarded as a pathogenic variant to HTG earlier on. Moreover about the beneficial polymorphism S447X, there was also some supportive evidence that the levels of triglycerides (TG) in S447X carriers were significantly lower than noncarders in the subjects without HTG. Conclusions: The association between the LPL variants and HTG is quite complicated and versatile, genotyping of LPL in a larger-scale screening should be necessary and justifiable.展开更多

文摘Carboxyl ester lipase(CEL),a pivotal enzyme involved in lipid metabolism,is recurrently mutated in obese mice.Here,we aimed to elucidate the functional significance,molecular mechanism,and therapeutic potential of CEL in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis(MASH).Hepatocyte-specific carboxyl ester lipase gene(Cel)knockout(Cel^(DHEP))and wildtype(WT)littermates were fed with cholinedeficient high-fat diet(CD-HFD)for 16 weeks,or methionine-and choline-deficient diet(MCD)for three weeks to induce MASH.Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry and co-immunoprecipitation were employed to identify the downstream targets of CEL.CD-HFD/MCD-fed WT mice received intravenous injections of CEL-adeno-associated viral,serotype 8(AAV8)to induce specific overexpression of CEL in the liver.We observed a decrease in CEL protein levels in MASH induced by CD-HFD or MCD in mice.Cel^(DHEP) mice fed with CD-HFD or MCD exhibited pronounced hepatic steatosis,inflammation,lipid peroxidation,and liver injury compared to WT littermates,accompanied by increased hepatic nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cell(NF-jB)activation.Consistently,Cel knockdown in mouse primary hepatocytes and AML12 cells aggravated lipid accumulation and inflammation,whereas CEL overexpression exerted the opposite effect.Mechanistically,CEL directly bound to fatty acid synthase(FASN),resulting in reduced FASN SUMOylation,which in turn promoted FASN degradation through the proteasome pathway.Furthermore,inhibition of FASN ameliorated hepatocyte lipid accumulation and inflammation induced by Cel knockdown in vivo and in vitro.Hepatocyte-specific CEL overexpression using AAV8-Cel significantly mitigated steatohepatitis in mice fed with CD-HFD or MCD.CEL protects against steatohepatitis development by directly interacting with FASN and suppressing its expression for de novo lipogenesis.CEL overexpression confers a therapeutic benefit in steatohepatitis.

文摘1,3-Dioleoyl-2-palmitoylglycerol(OPO)has been a hotspot of functional oils research in recent years,but due to the high cost of sn-1,3 specific lipase in enzymatic synthesis and the lack of biocatalyst stability,large-scale industrial application is difficult.In this study,the prepared magnetic ZnFe_(2)O_(4) was functionalized with dopamine to obtain ZnFe_(2)O_(4)@PDA,and the nano-biocatalyst ZnFe_(2)O_(4)@PDA@RML was prepared by immobilizing sn-1,3 specific lipase of Rhizomucor miehei lipase(RML)via a cross-linking method.The existence of RML on ZnFe_(2)O_(4)@PDA was confirmed by XRD,FTIR,SEM,and TEM.This strategy proved to be simple and effective because the lipase immobilized on magnetic nanoparticles could be quickly recovered using external magnets,enabling reuse of the lipase.The activity,adaptability to a high temperature,pH value,and operational stability of immobilized RML were superior to those of free RML.After optimizing the synthesis conditions,the OPO yield was 42.78%,and the proportion of PA at the sn-2 position(PA-Sn2)was 54.63%.After the first four cycles,the activity of ZnFe_(2)O_(4)@PDA@RML was not significantly affected.The magnetically immobilized lipase has good thermal stability,long-term storage stability,reusability,and high catalytic activity.It can be used as a green and efficient biocatalyst to synthesize the OPO functional lipid.

文摘We described a novel polymer-lipase conjugate for high-efficient esterification of vitamin E using vitamin E and succinic anhydride as the substrates in nonaqueous media.In this work,the monomer,N-isopropylacrylamide(NIPAM),was grafted onto Candida rugosa lipase(CRL)to synthesize poly(NIPAM)(pNIPAM)-CRL conjugate by atom transfer radical polymerization via the initiator coupled on the surface of CRL.The result showed that the catalytic efficiencies of pNIPAM-CRL conjugates(19.5-30.3 L·s^(-1)·mmol^(-1))were at least 7 times higher than that of free CRL(2.36 L·s^(-1)·mmol^(-1))in DMSO.It was attributed to a significant increase in Kcat of the conjugates in nonaqueous media.The synthesis catalyzed by pNIPAM-CRL co njugates was influenced by the length and density of the grafted polymer,water content,solvent polarity and molar ratio of the substrates.In the optimal synthesis,the reaction time was shortened at least 7 times,and yields of vitamin E succinate by pNIPAM-g-CRL and free CRL were obtained to be 75.4%and 6.6%at 55℃after the reaction for 1.5 h.The result argued that conjugation with pNIPAM induced conformational change of the lid on CRL based on hydrophobic interaction,thus providing a higher possibility of catalysis-favorable conformation on CRL in nonaqueous media.Moreover,pNIPAM conjugation improved the thermal stability of CRL greatly,and the stability improved further with an increase of chain length of pNIPAM.At the optimal reaction conditions(55℃and 1.5 h),pNIPAM-g-CRL also exhibited good reusability in the enzymatic synthesis of vitamin E succinate and kept~70%of its catalytic activity after ten consecutive cycles.The research demonstrated that pNIPAM-g-CRL was a more competitive biocatalyst in the enzymatic synthesis of vitamin E succinate and exhibited good application potential under harsh industrial conditions.

文摘Rice bran residue possessed a steady lipase activity((26.68 ± 3.69)%)after its endogenous lipase was extracted continuously by phosphate buffer solution(PBS)for 24 h. T herefore, the aim of this research was to explore whether there exist any bound lipases in rice bran(Oryza sativa). Three physical treatments(grinding, homogenizing and ultrasound crush)and 6 enzymatic treatments(cellulase, hemicellulase, pectinase, complex cellulase, glucoamylase and α-amylase)were applied to rice bran in order to investigate this bound lipase. The relative catalytic activities of extraction supernatant and residue for pectinase group were(437.63 ± 22.54)% and(159.26 ± 2.12)%, respectively, which were significantly higher(P < 0.05)than other groups. This phenomenon demonstrated that lipase was the most likely to combine with pectin. Molecular simulation proved that pectin could combine with two rice bran lipases(lipase 315 and lipase 308)and cover the catalytic centers so as to prevent the lipases from encountering the substrate and inhibiting their catalytic activities. During combination, pectin could make the lipases more compact and reduce the solvent accessible surface area of lipases, which would make the lipases inactive to molecular interaction. In summary, part of rice bran lipase was proved to exist in bound form and combined with the pectin.

文摘In this study,lipases of CALB(Candida antarctica lipase B),TLL(Thermomyces lanuginosa lipase),RML(Rhizomucor miehei lipase),CALA(Candida antarctica lipase A)and LU(Lecitase?Ultra)were encapsulated into the nucleotidehybrid metal coordination polymers(CPs)for diacylglyerols(DAG)preparation.Guanosine 5'-monophosphate(GMP)and adenosine 5'-monophosphate(AMP)were used as coordinating molecules,and metal ions of Fe^(3+),Ba^(2+),Mn^(2+),Ni^(2+)and Cr^(3+)were applied to prepare matrix.Results indicated that,besides Ba^(2+)with AMP,all other metal ions can coordinate with AMP and GMP to generate CPs.In addition,the AMP/Ni was amorphous when standing temperature was 4℃,while it was crystalline when standing temperature was from 30 to 180℃.DAG content from 47.55%to 64.99%was obtained from glycerolysis by CALB@GMP/Ba,RML@GMP/Ba,TLL@GMP/Ba,RML@GMP/Mn and TLL@GMP/Mn.Additionally,CALB@GMP/Fe showed selectivity towards DAG formation in the esterification and DAG content up to 61.88%was obtained.

文摘Due to its constant pumping and contraction, the heart requires a substantial amount of energy, with fatty acids (FAs) providing a major part of its adenosine triphosphate (ATP). However, the heart is incapable of making this substrate and attains its FAs from multiple sources, including the action of lipoprotein lipase (LPL). LPL is produced in cardiomyocytes and subsequently secreted to its heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) binding sites on the plasma membrane. To then move LPL to the endothelial cell (EC) lumen, glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored high-density lipoprotein-binding protein 1 (GPIHBP1) attaches to interstitial LPL and transfers it to the vascular lumen, where the LPL is ready to perform its function of breaking down circulating triglycerides (TG) into FAs. The endo-β-glucuronidase heparanase (Hpa) is unique in that it is the only known mammalian enzyme to cleave heparan sulfate (HS), thereby promoting the abovementioned release of LPL from the cardiomyocyte HSPG. In diabetes, it has been suggested that changes in how the heart generates energy are responsible for the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Following moderate diabetes, with the reduction in glucose utilization, the heart increases its LPL activity at the vascular lumen due to an increase in Hpa action. Although this adaptation might be beneficial to compensate for the underutilization of glucose by the heart, it is toxic over the long term, as harmful lipid metabolite accumulation, along with augmented FA oxidation and thus oxidative stress, leads to cell death. This coincides with the loss of a cardioprotective growth factor—namely, vascular endothelial growth factor B (VEGFB). This review discusses interconnections between Hpa, LPL, and VEGFB and their potential implications in DCM. Given that mechanism-based therapeutic care for DCM is unavailable, understanding the pathology of this cardiomyopathy, along with the contribution of LPL, will help us advance its clinical management.

文摘[Objective] The aim of this study was to investigate the prokaryotic expression of pseudomonas aeruginosa Lipase gene.[Method]Lipase gene was amplified by PCR from the genome DNA of pseudomonas aeruginosa,and its nucleotide sequence was determined.The prokaryotic expression vector of Lipase gene was constructed by the gene recombination technique.The protein expression was induced for 4 hours by IPTG with the final concentration of 1.0 mmol/L,and then SDS-PAGE electrophoresis was analyzed.[Result]The sequence of mature peptides in Lipase gene cloned from pseudomonas aeruginosa had a 99.36% homology with that of pseudomonas aeruginosa lipase submitted in NCBI,so the prokaryotic expression vector of Lipase gene pET32a-Lip was successfully constructed.Furthermore,the results of SDS-PAGE electrophoresis showed that the target gene was expressed highly and effectively.[Conclusion]The cloned pseudomonas aeruginosa lipase with its signal peptide could be normally expressed in E.coli and also used for further study.

文摘Objective: To investigate the association between the mutations in lipoprotein lipase gene and hypertriglyceridemia (HTG). Methods: The lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene was screened for mutations in 386 Chinese subjects with (108 cases in the HTG group) or without HTG (278 cases in the control group), by single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis and DNA sequencing. Results: One novel silent mutation L103L, one missense mutation P207L, three splicing mutations Int3/3' -ass/C(-6)→T, and the common S447X polymorphism has been identified in the whole coding region and exon-intron junctions of the LPL gene were examined. Heterozygous P207L found in the HTG group was the first case reported in Asia and subsequently another P207L heterozygote was found in the proband's family, all of which suggested that P207L was one of the causes of familial combined hyperlipidemia, but was not so prevalent as that in French Canadian. Int3/3'-ass/C(-6)→T was found in both groups in the present study although it was regarded as a pathogenic variant to HTG earlier on. Moreover about the beneficial polymorphism S447X, there was also some supportive evidence that the levels of triglycerides (TG) in S447X carriers were significantly lower than noncarders in the subjects without HTG. Conclusions: The association between the LPL variants and HTG is quite complicated and versatile, genotyping of LPL in a larger-scale screening should be necessary and justifiable.
