  • Title: Surface display expression of Bacillus licheniformis lipase in Escherichia coli using Lpp'OmpA chimera.
    Author: Jo JH, Han CW, Kim SH, Kwon HJ, Lee HH.
    Journal: J Microbiol; 2014 Oct; 52(10):856-62. PubMed ID: 25163839.
    Abstract:
    The lipase from Bacillus licheniformis ATCC14580 was displayed on the cell surface of Escherichia coli using Lpp'OmpA as the anchoring protein. The expressed Lpp'OmpA-lipase fusion protein has a molecular weight of approximately 35 kDa, which was confirmed by SDS-PAGE and western blot analysis. The Lpp'OmpA-lipase fusion protein was located on the cell surface, as determined by immunofluorescence confocal microscopy and flow cytometry. The enzyme activity of the surface-displayed lipase showed clear halo around the colony. The cell surface-displayed lipase showed the highest activity of 248.12 ± 9.42 U/g (lyophilized cell) at the optimal temperature of 37°C and pH 8.0. The enzyme exhibited the highest activity toward the substrate p-nitrophenyl caprylate (C8). These results suggest that E. coli, which displayed the lipase on its surface, could be used as a whole cell biocatalyst.
