RESUMO

Penicillium cyclopium partial acylglycerol lipase production was maximized in shaken batch culture. The effect of inoculum size and substrate concentration on the lipase activity released in the culture medium was visualized using a surface response methodology based on a Doehlert experimental design. The main advantage of this approach is the low number of experiments required to construct a predictive model of the experimental domain. Substrate percentage (corn steep, w/v) ranged from 0.1% to 1.9% and inoculum from 100 spores/ml to 3,200 spores/ml. We determined that an optimal set of experimental conditions for high lipase production was 1.0% substrate and 3,200 spores/ml, with initial pH 5.0, temperature 25 degrees C and shaking speed 120 rpm. Between the conditions giving the minimum and the maximum lipase production, we observed a three-fold increase in both the predicted and the measured values.

RESUMO

We have studied the enzymatic hydrolysis of solutions and emulsions of vinyl propionate, vinyl butyrate and tripropionin by lipases of various origin and specificity. Kinetic studies of the hydrolysis of short-chain substrates by microbial triacylglycerol lipases from Rhizopus oryzae, Mucor miehei, Candida rugosa, Candida antarctica A and by (phospho)lipase from guinea-pig pancreas show that these lipolytic enzymes follow the Michaelis-Menten model. Surprisingly, the activity against solutions of tripropionin and vinyl esters ranges from 70% to 90% of that determined against emulsions. In contrast, a non-hyperbolic (sigmoidal) dependence of enzyme activity on ester concentration is found with human pancreatic lipase, triacylglycerol lipase from Humicola lanuginosa (Thermomyces lanuginosa) and partial acylglycerol lipase from Penicillium camembertii and the same substrates. In all cases, no abrupt jump in activity (interfacial activation) is observed at substrate concentration corresponding to the solubility limit of the esters. Maximal lipolytic activity is always obtained in the presence of emulsified ester. Despite progress in the understanding of structure-function of lipases, interpretation of the mode of action of lipases active against solutions of short-chain substrates remains difficult. Actually, it is not known whether these enzymes, which possess a lid structure, are in open or/and closed conformation in the bulk phase and whether the opening of the lid that gives access to the catalytic triad is triggered by interaction of the enzyme molecule with monomeric substrates or/and multimolecular aggregates (micelles) both present in the bulk phase. From the comparison of the behaviour of lipases used in this study which, in some cases, follow the Michaelis-Menten model and, in others, deviate from classical kinetics, it appears that the activity of classical lipases against soluble short-chain vinyl esters and tripropionin depends not only on specific interaction with single substrate molecules at the catalytic site of the enzyme but also on physico-chemical parameters related to the state of association of the substrate dispersed in the aqueous phase. It is assumed that the interaction of lipase with soluble multimolecular aggregates of tripropionin or short-chain vinyl esters or the formation of enzyme-substrate mixed micelles with ester bound to lipase, might represent a crucial step that triggers the structural transition to the open enzyme conformation by displacement of the lid.

RESUMO

Penicillium cyclopium triacylglycerol lipase production was maximized in stationary batch culture. We used a surface response methodology based on a Doehlert experimental design to study the effect on the lipase activity released in the culture medium of the three most important factors: substrate concentration, pH and inoculum. Besides reducing the number of experiments required for optimization, this technique allowed us to quantify the lipase activity in any part of the experimental domain.We determined an optimal set of conditions for high lipase production: 1% substrate (corn steep), pH 5.5 and an inoculum of 10(4) spores/ml. Between conditions giving the minimum and the maximum lipase production, we observed a nine-fold increase of both the predicted and measured values.

RESUMO

Penicillium cyclopium produces two lipases with different substrate specificities. Lipase I is predominantly active on triacylglycerols whereas lipase II hydrolyzes mono- and diacylglycerols but not triacylglycerols. In this study, we compared the kinetic properties of P. cyclopium lipases and human pancreatic lipase, a classical triacylglycerol lipase, by using vinyl esters as substrates. Results indicate that P. cyclopium lipases I and II and human pancreatic lipase hydrolyze solutions of vinyl propionate or vinyl butyrate at high relative rates compared with emulsions of the same esters, although, in all cases, maximal activity is reached in the presence of emulsified particles, at substrate concentrations above the solubility limit. It appears that partially water-soluble short-chain vinyl esters are suitable substrates for comparing the activity of lipolytic enzymes of different origin and specificity toward esters in solution and in emulsion.

RESUMO

Penicillium cyclopium, grown in stationary culture, produces a type I lipase specific for triacylglycerols while, in shaken culture, it produces a type II lipase only active on partial acylglycerols. Lipase II has been purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation and chromatographies on Sephadex G-75 and DEAE-Sephadex. The enzyme exists in several glycosylated forms of 40-43 kDa, which can be converted to a single protein of 37 kDa by enzymatic deglycosylation. Activity of lipase II is maximal at pH 7.0 and 40 degrees C. The enzyme is stable from pH 4.5 to 7.0. Activity is rapidly lost at temperatures above 50 degrees C. The enzyme specifically hydrolyzes monoacylglycerols and diacylglycerols, especially of medium chain fatty acids. The sequence of the 20 first amino acid residues is similar to the N-terminal region of P. camembertii lipase and partially similar to lipases from Humicola lanuginosa and Aspergillus oryzae, but is different from Penicillium cyclopium lipase I. However, it can be observed that residues of valine and serine at positions 2 and 5 in Penicillium cyclopium lipase II are conserved in Penicillium expansum lipase, of which 16 out of the 20 first amino acid residues are similar to Penicillium cyclopium lipase I.

RESUMO

An extracellular lipase, active on water-insoluble triacylglycerols, has been isolated from Penicillium cyclopium. The purified enzyme has a molecular mass of 29 kDa by gel filtration and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It hydrolyzes emulsions of tributyrin, trioctanoin, and olive oil at the same rate as pancreatic lipase and shows very low activity against partial acylglycerols (monooctanoin and dioctanoin) and methyl esters. It is stable at 35 degrees C for 60 min and has maximal activity in a pH range of 8-10. Hydrolysis of triacylglycerols by P. cyclopium lipase is inhibited by detergents such as Triton X-100. Comparison of the sequence of the 20 first amino acid residues of P. cyclopium triacylglycerol lipase with other Penicillium lipases indicates a high homology with previously characterized lipases produced by P. expansum and P. solitum which are enzymes of comparable size and substrate specificity. Conversely, homology between P. cyclopium lipase and P. simplicissimum lipase, a nonspecific lipolytic enzyme, is low. Penicillium cyclopium triacylglycerol lipase shows no homology with P. camembertii lipase which is specific to monoacylglycerol and diacylglycerol.
