    Abstract:
    The cultivation conditions of wild-type strain V-10 and mutant strain M-1 (overproducer of endonuclease and chitinase) of Serratia marcescens optimal for extracellular lipase biosynthesis were determined. The strain V-10 displayed the maximal lipase yield (840 AU/ml) after 10-12 h of cultivation; the strain M-1 (33 AU/ml), after 25-30 h. The data showed that extracellular lipases from V-10 and M-1 can be precipitated in a weakly acid medium (pH 5.0 and 4.5, respectively). This property was used to obtain partially purified lipase preparations. The effect of the ionic composition of the reaction mixture on the activities of these enzymatic preparations was studied. Both preparations displayed highest activities in weakly alkaline media (pH 8.0); however, the wild-type strain lipase displayed a higher thermal stability and stability at alkaline pH compared with M-1 lipase. Both lipases were activated by various anionic and nonionic surfactants and inactive in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide.
