Article Citation - WoS: 39Citation - Scopus: 44Identification and Characterization of Novel Thermostable Alpha-Amylase From Geobacillus Sp. Gs33(Elsevier, 2020) Burhanoğlu, Tülin; Sürmeli, Yusuf; Şanlı Mohamed, GülşahIn this study, the heterologous expression and biochemical characterization of a thermostable alpha-amylase from Geobacillus sp. GS33 was investigated. The recombinant alpha-amylase was overexpressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (lambda DE) and purified via anion exchange and size-exclusion chromatography. The purified alpha-amylase had a molecular weight of about 60 kDa, and was active in a broad range of pH 3-10 and temperature (40-90 degrees C) withmaximumactivity at pH 7-8 and 60 degrees C. The enzyme retained 50% residual activity at 65 degrees C, but only 20% at 85 degrees C after 16 h. At pH 9 and pH 7, the residual activity at 65 degrees C was 50% and 30%, respectively. The enzymewas remarkably activated by Co2+, Ca2+, Mg2+, PMSF, DTT, and Triton X-100, but partially inhibited by Cu2+, methanol, hexane, ethanol, acetone, SDS, and Tween 20. A molecular phylogeny analysis showed that the enzyme's amino acid sequence had the closest connection with an alpha-amylase from Geobacillus thermoleovorans subsp. stromboliensis nov. 3D-structure-based amino acid sequence alignments revealed that the three catalytic residues (D217, E246, D314) and the four Ca2+ ion coordination residues (N143, E177, D186, H221) were conserved in alpha-amylase from Geobacillus sp. GS33. The temperature stability and neutral pH optimum suggest that the enzyme may be useful for industrial applications. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V.

Three esterases (Est1, Est2, Est3) were cloned directly by PCR amplification using consensus degenerate primers from genomic DNA of the strains Est1, Est2 and Est3 which were from mud, reinjection water and uncontrolled thermal leak, respectively. The genes contained an open reading frame (ORF) consisting of 741 bp for Est1 and Est2, which encoded 246 amino acids and ORF of Est3 was 729 bp encoded 242 amino acids. The esterase genes were expressed in E. coli and purified using His-Select HF nickel affinity gel. The molecular mass of the recombinant enzyme for each esterase was approximately 27. 5 kDa. The three esterases showed high specific activity toward short chain p-NP esters. Recombinant Est1, Est2, Est3 have exhibited similar activity and the highest esterase activity of 1,100 U/mg with p-nitrophenyl acetate (pNPC2) as substrate was observed with Est1. All three esterase were most active around 65°C and pH 9.5-10.0. The effect of organic solvents, several metal ions, inhibitors and detergents on enzyme activity for purified Est1, Est2, Est3 were determined separately and compared.
