Genomic DNA encoding Lipase I was cloned from Rhizopus niveus strain IFO4759. For expression of this gene in S. cerevisiae, DBY746 was transformed with YEp352PLipS, which had the cloned lipase gene under the control of a PGK promoter. This strain secreted the lipase at a high level (350 U/ml). The strain ND-12B was produced by a mating of DBY746, harboring YEp352PLipS, and NA74-3A, and dissection of asci. This new strain secreted the lipase up to 530 U/ml. Moreover, the lipase was produced most effectively in a medium containing Bacto-yeast extract, soy-peptide, and sucrose.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
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.
