Abstract  

From the genome of Pseudomonas antitumoralis HUP007, an esterase gene harboring 1041 bp and encoding a protein EstP8 of 377 amino acid was cloned. Esterase EstP8 was efficiently expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3) and further purified. Esterase EstP8 belongs to the IV family of lipases and contains conserved HGGG motif. The optimal substrate of esterase EstP8 was p-NPO, the optimal working temperature of esterase EstP8 was 50℃ and the optimal working pH of esterase EstP8 was 8.0. The hydrolysis activity of esterase EstP8 toward p-NPO was 105.19 U/mg, with Vmax and Km being 89.4 μmol/min and 1.144 mM, respectively. Esterase EstP8 remained high activity at pH7.0~8.0. The relative activity of esterase EstP8 was 41.78% at 4℃ and esterase EstP8 behaved very good thermo-stability at 10~40℃. EstP8 exhibited very good resistance to most metal ions tested. The addition of Cu2+, Mn2+ or Zn2+ of low concentrations could even stimulate the activity of EstP8. Organic solvents such as isooctane, methylbenzene, acetone and DMF could stimulate the activity of EstP8. Esterase EstP8 could generate chiral (R)-1-phenylethanol through kinetic resolution. The addition of organic solvents could well stimulate the stereo-selectivity and conversion during kinetic resolution. The e.e. and conversion of generated (R)-1-phenylethanol could reach 91% and 18%, respectively, in the presence of methylbenzene. The e.e. and conversion of generated (S)-styrallyl acetate could reach 98% and 60%, respectively, in the presence of DMSO. Psychrophilic esterase EstP8 possesses good potential in diverse industries such as stereo-selective biocatalysis.
