Effect of mutation at oxyanion hole residu (H110F) on activity of Lk4 lipase.

ABSTRACT: Mutant of lipase at oxyanion hole (H110 F) was constructed. The gene was highly expressed in Eschericia coli BL21 (DE3) and the recombinant protein was purified using Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. The activity of mutant enzyme was significantly increased compared to that the wild type. Further comparison showed that both of the enzymes exhibited same optimum pH and temperature, and showed highest lipolytic activity on pNP-decanoate (C10). The wild type appeared lost of activity on C14 and C16 substrates meanwhile the mutant still showed activity up to 20 %. In the presence of non polar organic solvent such as n-hexane, the wild type became inactive enzyme meanwhile the mutant still remained 50 % of its activity. The results suggested that mutation at oxyanion hole (H110 F) caused
