A gene encoding an extracellular lipase from Streptomyces sp. M11 was cloned in the high-copy-number vector pIJ486, using S. lividans 66 as host. A 28-kDa protein was secreted by S. lividans carrying pB13, which harbors a 6-kb insert, and identified as the product of the cloned gene. Comparison of the N-terminal amino acid (aa) sequence of the purified extracellular lipase with the nucleotide (nt) sequence of the lip gene revealed the presence of a 48 aa long signal peptide. The nucleotide sequence also revealed the presence of a motif, Gly-His-Ser-Met-Gly, similar to the one found surrounding the active-site Ser in other lipases. The gene is most likely monocistronic. Subcloning experiments indicated that another gene might be required for high-level expression, since subcloning of the structural gene alone resulted in diminished extracellular lipase activity. The lipase gene promoter was identified by S1 mapping experiments, and found to be similar to other Streptomyces vegetative promoters.

D008049 Lipase An enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the reaction of triacylglycerol and water to yield diacylglycerol and a fatty acid anion. It is produced by glands on the tongue and by the pancreas and initiates the digestion of dietary fats. (From Dorland, 27th ed) EC 3.1.1.3.
