ABSTRACT We isolated the LIP2 gene from the lipolytic yeastYarrowia lipolytica. It was found to encode a 334-amino-acid precursor protein. The secreted lipase is a 301-amino-acid glycosylated polypeptide which is a member of the triacylglycerol hydrolase family (EC 3.1.1.3 ). The Lip2p precursor protein is processed by the KEX2-like endoprotease encoded by XPR6. Deletion of the XPR6 gene resulted in the secretion of an active but less stable proenzyme. Thus, the pro region does not inhibit lipase secretion and activity. However, it does play an essential role in the production of a stable enzyme. Processing was found to be correct in LIP2 A (multipleLIP2 copy integrant)-overexpressing strains, which secreted 100 times more activity than the wild type, demonstrating thatXPR6 maturation was not limiting. No extracellular lipase activity was detected with the lip2 knockout (KO) strain, strongly suggesting that extracellular lipase activity results from expression of the LIP2 gene. Nevertheless, thelip2 KO strain is still able to grow on triglycerides, suggesting an alternative pathway for triglyceride utilization inY. lipolytica.

In the present study lipase production, purification and characterization were carried out with a novel fungal strain of Penicillium citrinum KU613360 isolated from vegetable oil contaminated soil samples collected from oil mills located in and around Guntur District, Andhra Pradesh, India. The strain improvement was carried out by subjecting the strain to both UV and Ethidium Bromide treatments. The wild strain of P. citrinum KU613360 showed maximum lipase activity of 1.053±0.32IUmL-1 on optimized medium and while the mutated strain treated with combination of UV (300 sec) and Et Br (200 µgcm3), recorded the enzyme activity of 4.260±0.011IUmL-1, using the optimised medium at 6.5 pH and 40°C temperature. Thus, a 404% enhancement in the activity was achieved by using induced mutation on wild strain of P. citrinum KU613360. The molecular weight of the purified lipase from the mutated strain was found to be 35 kDa, when analysed on SDS PAGE. From our results it was concluded that the mutated strain has considerable capability and potentiality to be used in various industrial applications.
