Evaluation of the Structure-Function Relationship of SGNH Lipase from Streptomyces rimosus by Site-Directed Mutagenesis and Computational Approach.

ABSTRACT: Streptomyces rimosus extracellular lipase (SrL) is a multifunctional hydrolase belonging to the SGNH family. Here site-directed mutagenesis (SDM) was used for the first time to investigate the functional significance of the conserved amino acid residues Ser10, Gly54, Asn82, Asn213, and His216 in the active site of SrL. The hydrolytic activity of SrL variants was determined using para-nitrophenyl (pNP) esters with C4, C8, and C16 fatty acid chains. Mutation of Ser10, Asn82, or His216, but not Gly54, to Ala abolished lipase activity for all substrates. In contrast, the Asn213Ala variant showed increased enzymatic activity for C8 and C16 pNP esters. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations showed that the interactions between the long alkyl chain substrate (C16) and Ser
