Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Sequence Identification and in Silico Characterization of Novel Thermophilic Lipases From Geobacillus Species(WILEY, 2023) Sürmeli, Yusuf; Tekedar, Hasan Cihad; Sanli-Mohamed, GulsahMicrobial lipases are utilized in various biotechnological areas, including pharmaceuticals, food, biodiesel, and detergents. In this study, we cloned and sequenced Lip21 and Lip33 genes from Geobacillus sp. GS21 and Geobacillus sp. GS33, then we in silico and experimentally analyzed the encoded lipases. For this purpose, Lip21 and Lip33 were cloned, sequenced, and their amino acid sequences were investigated for determination of biophysicochemical characteristics, evolutionary relationships, and sequence similarities. 3D models were built and computationally affirmed by various bioinformatics tools, and enzyme-ligand interactions were investigated by docking analysis using six ligands. Biophysicochemical property of Lip21 and Lip33 was also determined experimentally and the results demonstrated that they had similar isoelectric point (pI) (6.21) and T-m (75.5(degrees)C) values as T-m was revealed by denatured protein analysis of the circular dichroism spectrum and pI was obtained by isoelectric focusing. Phylogeny analysis indicated that Lip21 and Lip33 were the closest to lipases from Geobacillus sp. SBS-4S and Geobacillus thermoleovorans, respectively. Alignment analysis demonstrated that S144-D348-H389 was catalytic triad residues in Lip21 and Lip33, and enzymes possessed a conserved Gly-X-Ser-X-Gly motif containing catalytic serine. 3D structure analysis indicated that Lip21 and Lip33 highly resembled each other and they were alpha/beta hydrolase-fold enzymes with large lid domains. BAN Delta IT analysis results showed that Lip21 and Lip33 had higher thermal stability, compared to other thermostable Geobacillus lipases. Docking results revealed that Lip21- and Lip33-docked complexes possessed common residues (H112, K115, Q162, E163, and S141) that interacted with the substrates, except paranitrophenyl (pNP)-C10 and pNP-C12, indicating that these residues might have a significant action on medium and short-chain fatty acid esters. Thus, Lip21 and Lip33 can be potential candidates for different industrial applications.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 16Purification and Biochemical Characterization of a Novel Thermostable Serine Protease From Geobacillus Sp. Gs53(Springer, 2021) Şanlı Mohamed, Gülşah; Güracar Baykara, Seden; Sürmeli, YusufProteases account for approximately 60% of the enzyme market in the world, and they are used in various industrial applications including the detergent industry. In this study, production and characterization of a novel serine protease of thermophilic Geobacillus sp. GS53 from Balcova geothermal region, Izmir, Turkey, were performed. The thermostable protease was purified through ammonium sulfate precipitation and anion-exchange chromatography. The results showed that the protease had 137.8 U mg(-1) of specific activity and optimally worked at 55 C-o and pH 8. It was also active in a broad pH (4-10) and temperature (25-75 degrees C) ranges. The protease was highly stable at 85 degrees C and demonstrated relative stability at pH 4, 7, and 10. Also, the enzyme had high stability against organic solvents and surfactants; enzyme relative activity did not decrease below 81% upon preincubation for 10 min. Ca2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ ions slightly induced protease activity. The protease was highly specific to casein, skim milk, Hammerstein casein, and BSA substrates. These results revealed that the protease might have a potential effect in a variety of industrial fields, especially the detergent industry, because of its high thermostability and stability to surfactants.
