Abstract
In the current study, an extracellular thermostable lipase from Bacillus sp. strain L2 was produced and purified through two-steps purifications, including ammonium sulfate precipitation and Heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography. Then, the optimum pH, optimum temperature, thermostability, the effect of metal ions and inhibitors, and substrate specificity towards the natural oils were investigated. Extracellular L2 lipase showed a purification fold of 2.74 and specific activity of 3.54 U/mg towards olive oil as substrate. Furthermore, the purified extracellular L2 lipase had the optimum temperature and pH of 80 °C and pH 7, respectively. The half-lives (t1/2) of L2 lipase at 80 and 85 °C were 150 and 13.43 min, respectively. Moreover, the SDS-PAGE analysis illustrated the single band with a molecular mass of 43 kDa. Moreover, metal ions, including 10 mM concentrations of the Ba2+, Mn2+, Zn2+, Fe3+, Cu2+, and Sr2+, demonstrated inhibitory effects on the L2 lipase activity by decreasing the lipase activity by 100, 18.8, 4.16, 18.86, 100, and 6.25 times. However, the 5 mM concentration of Ca2+ metal ions improved the lipase activity by 1.2 fold. Furthermore, the results after 30 min incubation of L2 lipase with pCMB, PMSF, EDTA, and DTT illustrated that L2 lipase retained 4, 5.3, 5.5, and 26.6% of its initial activity, respectively. The substrate specificity results also illlustrated relative lipase activities of 200, 66.66, 44, 40, 11.33, 9.3, and 13.33% towards sesame oil, coconut oil, rice bran oil, corn oil, sun floweroil, soybean oil, and canola oil, respectively, compared to olive oil.

Introduction
Microbial lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) are widely distributed enzymes with significant physiological function and potential for application in industry. Unlike esterases, lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols to glycerol and free fatty acids (Chandra et al. 2020; Alias et al. 2023). Lipases are activated only when adsorbed to an oil-water interface and do not hydrolyze dissolved substrates in the bulk fluid (Geoffry and Achur 2018). Furthermore, Lipases are serine hydrolases and display little activity in aqueous solutions containing soluble substrate (Ben Salah et al. 2007; Oyedele et al. 2019). Microbial lipases are mostly applicable in the industrial sectors, including biofuel, animal feed, detergents, textiles, leather, cosmetics, and paper (Raveendran et al. 2018; Vishnoi et al. 2020). Thermostability is one of the most important factors for industrial application of lipases. The thermostability of lipases can either be improved through protein engineering approaches or by discovering the lipases from thermophilic microorganisms from extreme and harsh regions such as hot springs (Contesini et al. 2020; Hamdan et al. 2021, 2023). Several investigations have illustrated the isolation of thermostable lipases from different microorganisms, including Brevibacillus thermoruber (Atanasova et al. 2023), thermo-halophilic bacterium (Febriani et al. 2020), Pseudomonas moraviensis M9 (Yang et al. 2015), and Thermus aquaticus (Febriani et al. 2013) that showed their maximum activities at temperatures 55 °C, 70 °C, 65 °C, and 65 °C, respectively. The features of enzymes, such as optimum pH and temperature, are sometimes changed through heterologous expression. For instance, the phytase PhyA from Aspergillus niger showed the two optimum pH of 2.5 and 5.5 through homologous expression (Dotsenko et al. 2022). Meanwhile, the expression of phytase PhyA in the E. coli expression system illustrated the optimum pH of 6.5 (Ushasree et al. 2014). The previous investigation isolated a thermophilic lipolytic Bacillus sp. strain L2 from a hot spring (Shariff et al. 2007). Then, its lipase gene was cloned and expressed in the Pichia pastoris expression system for characterization of the purified L2 lipase. The results demonstrated that the L2 lipase has the maximum activity at pH and temperature of 8.0 and 70 °C, respectively (Sabri et al. 2009). Therefore, the current study aims to purify the lipase from Bacillus sp. strain L2 through two-step purifications, including the ammonium sulfate precipitation and Heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography, respectively. Subsequently, the current study investigated the optimum pH, optimum temperature, and thermostability, the effect of metal ions and inhibitors, and substrate specificity towards the natural oils to discover the differences between purified heterologous recombinant L2 lipase in P.pastoris and the purified extracellular lipase from the Bacillus sp. strain L2.
Materials and methods
Production and purification of the lipase from Bacillus sp. strain L2
The isolated thermophilic lipolytic Bacillus sp. strain L2 from a hot spring (91 °C) in Slim River, Perak was used in the current investigation, and the optimized condition of production of lipase that was obtained in the previous study was used in this study (Shariff et al. 2007). The crude lipase was obtained by centrifugation of growth culture at 10,000 x g, 4 °C for 10 min. The L2 lipase was precipitated at 0–20% ammonium sulphate saturation. Then, the precipitated lipase was collected by centrifugation at 14,000 x g for 15 min and dissolved in 20 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4). Afterward, the suspension was dialyzed against the 20 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4) for 18 h at 4 °C with regular changing buffer every 6 h. Then, the dialyzed lipase was loaded into the Heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography column that was previously equilibrated with the PBS buffer (pH 7.4) with a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min. The unbound protein was washed with PBS buffer (pH 7.4). Finally, the gradients of NaCl from 0 to 1.5 M with a flow rate of 1 mL/min were applied to elute the bounded protein and followed by lipases assay for each fraction. The protein concentration of the samples was determined using the Bradford assay method with bovine serum albumin as a standard (Bradford 1976). The analysis of the molecular mass of purified protein was carried out using 12% SDS-PAGE.
Lipase assay
The amount of released free fatty acid was determined using a modified colorimetric approach using olive oil as a substrate (Kwon and Rhee 1986). The reaction mixture was prepared by combining 50 µL of purified lipase with the concentration of 0.5 mg/mL, 950 µL of 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (50 mM, pH 7), 2.5 mL olive oil emulsion (1:1 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7) buffer and olive oil) and then followed by incubation at 80 °C and 200 rpm for 30 min. Afterwards, the reaction was subsequently halted by adding 5 mL of isooctane and 1 mL of 6 N HCl, followed by adding 1 mL of cupric acetate pyridine (Masomian et al. 2018). Finally, the optical density (OD) of the sample was measured at a wavelength of 715 nm to determine the free fatty acids. One unit (U) of lipase activity was defined as the amount of the enzyme that liberated one µmol of fatty acid per minute under standard test conditions (Borkar et al. 2009).
Detection of pH and temperature profiles of L2 lipase
The pH profile of L2 lipase was detected through lipase assay toward olive oil at 80 °C, with pH ranging from 4 to 12 with 1 interval. In this regard, different buffers were utilized at a concentration of 50 mM, including sodium acetate buffer (pH 4.0-5.5), phosphate buffer (pH 6.0–8.0), Tris-HCI (pH 8.0–9.0), glycine-NaOH (pH9.0-10.0), and disodium hydrogen phosphate (pH 10.0–12.0) (Masomian et al. 2018). Moreover, the temperature profile of lipase was detected at the range of 30 to 85 °C with 5 °C intervals.
Thermostability investigation of L2 lipase
The thermostability of L2 lipase was investigated by pre-incubation of the purified enzyme at 80 and 85 °C from 30 to 180 min with 30 min intervals. Then, the enzyme was cooled on ice and followed by lipase assay at 80 °C and pH 7 towards olive oil. The residual lipase activity was recorded at each 30 min interval to show the thermostability of the enzyme. The thermostability graph was plotted between incubation time and the percentage of the residual activity. The half-lives of L2 lipase were evaluated at temperatures 80 and 85 ˚C by fitting the experimental data to an exponential decay equation to indicate the first-order decay (Pulido et al. 2020).
Effect of metal ions and inhibitors on L2 lipase
The effect of chloride salt solutions of metal ions, including Ca 2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Mn2+, Co2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, and Zn2+ on L2 lipases was investigated by pre-incubation of lipase for 30 min in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7) including concentrations of 2, 5 and 10 mM of metal ions. Furthermore, the effect of the different inhibitors, including ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), Dithiothreitol (DTT), Phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), and P-Chloromercuribenzcic acid (pCMB) on L2 lipase activity was investigated by pre-incubation of purified lipase for 30 min in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7) with the 10 mM of each reagent and followed by standard lipase assay with incubation at 80 °C for 10, 20, and 30 min to obtain the relative activity.
Substrate specificity of L2 lipase towards natural oils
The substrate specificity of L2 lipase was investigated towards natural oils, including coconut oil, rice bran oil, olive oil, sesame oil, canola oil, soybean oil, corn oil, and sunflower oil. The natural oils were emulsified in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer in a 1:1 ratio at pH 7 and then utilized as substrates for L2 lipase assay. The lipase assay was carried out in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer at pH 7 and 80 °C for 30 min.
Data analysis
GraphPad Prism 9 (GraphPad Software Inc., CA, USA) was used to analyze the gathered numerical data. The data was presented as the mean ± standard deviation. The data were initially compared using one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparison test. The P-values below 0.05 were deemed to indicate statistical significance.
Results and discussion
Production and purification of thermostable lipase
The promoted production of lipase from Bacillus sp. strain L2 was carried out by adding 1% casamino acid (w/v), 1.5% Tween (v/v), 5 mM Ca2+, and 1% trehalose (w/v) and then followed by incubation at 70 °C and 150 rpm for 28 h (Shariff et al. 2007). The two steps of purification, including the ammonium sulfate precipitation and Heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography, were performed to obtain the single band of L2 lipase. The purification profile of L2 lipase is summarized in Table 1. The extracellular L2 lipase was purified with a purification fold and yield of 2.74 and 34.88%, respectively. Purification of L2 lipase increased the lipase activity from 0.125 U/mL to 0.44 U/mL with increases in specific lipase activity from 1.3 U/mg to 3.54 U/mg after two steps of purification. The SDS-PAGE analysis of extracellular L2 lipase showed a single band with a molecular mass of 43 kDa (Fig. 1) that was the same molecular mass as the reported ones of the recombinant L2 lipase (Shariff et al. 2011; Abd Rahman et al. 2012).
Determination of temperature and pH profiles, and thermostability of L2 lipase
The purified L2 lipase illustrated the optimum activity at pH 7, while it showed more than 60% activity at pH 5, 6, and 8. The lipase activity was decreased to about 47% at pH 9 followed by a drastic decrease to 25% at pH 10. The lipase also showed 20 and 5% activity at pH 11 and 12, respectively (Fig. 2a). In the previous investigation, expressed recombinant L2 lipase in P.pastoris showed the optimum activities at pH 8 (Sabri et al. 2009). This difference in optimum pH can be derived from the post-translational modification in the P. pastoris expression system (Karbalaei et al. 2020). To detect the temperature profile of L2 lipase, the lipase assays were carried out at a temperature range of 50 to 85 °C with 5 °C intervals. The results demonstrated the optimum temperature at 80 °C, while the lipase activity was started at 50 °C and followed by a dramatic increase until 75 °C with 95% of its optimum activity. L2 lipase at 70 and 85 °C showed activity around 75% compared to the optimum temperature (Fig. 2b). However, the current investigation demonstrated the maximum lipase activity at pH 7 and 80 °C. However, the previous study on the expressed recombinant L2 lipase in P. pastoris demonstrated the optimum activity at pH 8 and 70 °C (Sabri et al. 2009). Protein expression in the P. pastoris likely affected the optimum pH and temperature of the L2 lipase due to the post-translational modifications that usually occur in the P. pastoris expression system (Karbalaei et al. 2020). The optimum temperature of purified L2 lipase in the current study showed 25, 10, and 22.5 °C higher optimum temperature compared to recently investigated thermostable lipases from Brevibacillus thermoruber (Atanasova et al. 2023), thermo-halophilic bacterium (Febriani et al. 2020), and Anoxybacillus sp. ARS-1 (Sahoo et al. 2020), respectively. Concerning thermostability, the L2 lipase retained 93% of its initial activity after 120 min incubation at 80 °C. It retained only 6% of its initial activity after 30 and 60 min incubation at 85 °C. Concerning half-life (t1/2), the L2 lipase illustrated 150 and 13.43 min at 80 and 85 °C, respectively (Fig. 2c).
Effect of metal ions on L2 lipase
Metal ions play a significant role in the functions of numerous enzymes (Riordan 1977). Enzyme activity can be increased or inhibited in the presence of different metal ions. For instance, it has been illustrated that Ca2+ ions increased the activity and folding of lipase from Antarctic Pseudomonas fluorescens strain AMS8 (Ali et al. 2020). Therefore, the effects of the metal ions on L2 lipase were investigated in the current study. The results illustrated that 5 mM concentration of Ca2+ ions improved the lipase activity by 1.2 fold. While, other metal ions, including 2 mM concentrations of the Ba2+, Mn2+, Zn2+, Fe3+, Cu2+, and Sr2+, showed inhibitory effects on the L2 lipase activity by decreasing the lipase activity by 3.4, 2.7, 0.16, 0.165, 12.5, 18.86 folds. Furthermore, metal ions, including 5 mM concentrations of the Ba2+, Mn2+, Zn2+, Fe3+, Cu2+, and Sr2+, demonstrated inhibitory effects on the L2 lipase activity by decreasing the lipase activity by 9.43, 1.7, 3.125, 1.38, 15, and 2.68 folds, respectively. Moreover, metal ions, including 10 mM concentrations of the Ba2+, Mn2+, Zn2+, Fe3+, Cu2+, and Sr2+, demonstrated inhibitory effects on the L2 lipase activity by decreasing the lipase activity by 100, 18.8, 4.16, 18.86, 100, and 6.25 times (Fig. 3). In the current study, only the 5 mM Ca2+ could improve lipase activity (Fig. 3). Ca2+ improved lipase activity of a thermostable lipase from a thermo-halophilic bacterium, while Zn2+ decreased lipase activity (Febriani et al. 2020). Furthermore, investigating the effect of metal ions on a lipase from Chromohalobacter japonicus BK-AB18 also demonstrated that Ca2+ was the only metal ion that increased the lipolytic activity of lipase, while Zn2+and Ba2+ metal ions diminished the lipase activity (Hertadi and Widhyastuti 2015).
Substrates specificity of evaluation towards natural oils
The lipase activity was evaluated towards various commercially available natural oils, including sesame oil, coconut oil, rice bran oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil, and canola oil and the olive oil was considered as control (100%). The results illlustrated relative lipase activities of 200, 66.66, 44, 40, 11.33, 9.3, and 13.33% towards sesame oil, coconut oil, rice bran oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil, and canola oil, respectively, compared to olive oil (Fig. 4). The results demonstrated that L2 lipase has activity towards a range of the natural oils. However, it has a higher affinity towards long-carbon chain natural oils, including sesame and olive oils. A lipase from Aspergillus tamarii JGIF06 also showed a high substrate affinity towards sesame oil. This lipase showed the highest lipolytic activity of 48,333.33 U/mL towards peanut oil, while its optimum temperature was 37 °C (Das et al. 2016). However, the highest lipolytic activity of L2 lipase in the current investigation was 0.72 ± 0.011 U/mL towards the sesame oil, which has an optimum temperature of 80 °C. It has been demonstrated that thermostable enzymes have lower activities due to their rigid protein structure (Nezhad et al. 2022, 2023). Therefore, the low activity of the L2 lipase might be associated with its rigid structure.
Inhibitory effects of reagents on L2 lipase activity
The inhibitory effects of the pCMB, PMSF, EDTA, and DTT were investigated on the purified L2 lipase at 10, 20, and 30 min. After 10 min incubation of L2 lipase with pCMB, PMSF, EDTA, and DTT, the results illustrated that L2 lipase retained 14.6, 20, 73.3, and 56% of its initial activity, respectively. Moreover, the results after 20 min incubation of L2 lipase with pCMB, PMSF, EDTA, and DTT illustrated that L2 lipase retained 5.3, 13.3, 29.35, 37.6% of its initial activity, respectively. Furthermore, the results after 30 min incubation of L2 lipase with pCMB, PMSF, EDTA, and DTT illustrated that L2 lipase retained 4, 5.3, 5.5, and 26.6% of its initial activity, respectively (Fig. 5). The pCMB reagent showed the strongest inhibitory effect on the lipase L2 and decreased lipase activity by 96% after 30 min incubation. The pCMB is a thiol-binding reagent that reacts with the thiol groups in the enzymes and plays an inhibitory role in enzyme activity that their reactivity is dependent on thiol (Kundu et al. 1987). Therefore, it can be concluded that a thiol group of cysteine residue is probably close to the active site of the L2 lipase. Moreover, the PMSF showed the second strong inhibitory effect that decreased the lipase activity by 94.7% after 30 min incubation. The PMSF, a serine protease inhibitor, can interact with serine in the active site of lipase (Febriani et al. 2013, 2020). A previous investigation on the elucidation of L2 lipase structure unraveled the catalytic triad of Ser 113, His 358 and Asp 317 (Abd Rahman et al. 2012). Therefore, this lipase activity inhibition by PMSF is derived from the interaction between the PMSF and serine residue in the active site of L2 lipase. The EDTA decreased lipase activity by 94.5% and was the third strong inhibitor in the current investigation. Therefore, this lipolytic activity inhibition by EDTA showed that L2 lipase is a metalloprotein.
Conclusion
The extracellular thermostable lipase from Bacillus sp. strain L2 was produced and purified through two-step purifications, including ammonium sulfate precipitation and Heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography. The optimum temperature and pH of lipase in this study were 80 °C and 7, respectively. Meanwhile, in the previous investigation, the expression of recombinant lipase from Bacillus sp. strain L2 in the P.pastoris showed the optimum temperature and pH of 70 °C and 8, respectively. The current study demonstrated that the production and purification of L2 lipase from its WT host can preserve the native lipase features, which is better than the heterologous expression.
