  2. Screening isolates for enzymatic activities (WP6 and WP7) Focus on enzymes from metagenomic expression libraries (WP7) Work objectives: to explore the diversity of DHABs: to isolate, hyperexpress and characterize novel enzymes and other products (DL27 – M34; DL29 - M34, DL30 – M26, DL 31 – M34) Two approaches: analysis of expression libraries and microbial isolates

  23. ABSTRACT: enzyme properties Here we describe a comparative analysis of ten novel esterases from a large library created from deep-sea hypersaline anoxic basins of the Eastern Mediterranean. A genomic DNA library of deep-sea hypersaline anoxic basins of the Eastern Mediterranean was established into Escherichia coli, and screened for esterase activity by using -naphtyl butyrate and Fast Blue RR. Eleven genes (pBKOil2, pBKOil7, pBKOil8, pBKO.2, pBKO.4, pBKO.9, pBKO.12, pBKO.14, pBKO.16, pBKO.21) encoding eleven esterases has been cloned and sequenced, and their protein products have been purified and characterized. Sequence analysis revealed less than 40% identity to sequences of known esterases and lipases. They preferred short chain water-soluble esters as substrates. The optimal pH and temperature of the purified enzymes were in the range 8.0-9.5 and 40-60°C, respectively. Purified esterases exhibited hydrolytic activity without addition of any metal ions. However they were optimally active in the presence of different concentrations of Na+ or K+. Esterases from pBKO.4, pBKO.8, pBKO.12, pBKO13 were 2 times more active at concentration in the range from 25 to 75 mM. In contrast, esterases from pBKO.9, pBKO.14 and pBKO.2 were inhibited above 25 mM. Some other esterases, i. e. from pBKO.16, pBKO.21, pBKOil2, pBKOil7 and pBKOil8 showed a high activation at concentrations of Na+ or K+1.5-2.0, 1.0-1.5, 2.0-4.0, 3.5, 3.5, 0.8 and 4.0 M, which is tipical for halophilic enzymes. The positive clones, pBKO.2, pBKO.4, pBKO.21, were found to have 1(3) positional specificity against triacylglycerols. Interestingly, pBKOil8 and pBKO.4 showed 2 positional specificity against triacylglycerols. The hydrolytic and synthetic activities and estimated enantioselectivities towards chiral ester library was assayed. We found 4 lactone hydrolases (pBKOil8, pBKO.2, pBKO.9 andpBKO.21), 6 highly specific for aromatic chiral compounds (pBKOil7, pBKO.2, pBKO.14 and pBKO.16). Esterases derived from pBKO.14, pBKO.16, pBKO.4, pBKO.21 and pBKOil8, were potentially used for industrial resolution of chiral carboxylic acid with a stereocenter  to carbonyl. pBKO.2, pBKO.14 pBKO.9 and pBKOil8 were the most stable against organic solvent and 1.5-fold times more active in the presence of detergents. Taking the catalytic efficiency and the enantiomeric excess and ratio, we concluded that the esterases produced by pBKOil8, pBKO.2, pBKO.4, pBKO.23 and pBKO.21 exhibited the best properties of all tested esterases for application in the biotechnological resolution of chiral esters. We found that most of the esterase-encoding genes discovered are entirely new and the targeted activity and enantioselectivities test for the esterase product revealed a unique phenotype for some of the new biocatalysts.

  24. WHAT NEXT??? Check the esterase in unknown reactions. Characterization of amylase: halophilic??? progress Characterization of endoglucanase Check for new enzymes: DNase, proteases, oxidoreductases, alcohol dehydrogenases and dehydratases, laccases, etc… Crystallization Surfactants – a big struggle…

  25. Conclusions and outlook Collection of hydrolytic enzymes from expression libraries obtained after oil enrichment, have been characterised they exhibit novel structures (low homology to the homologs), have a good potential for industrial applications and “tell the stories” about the environment and organisms they were derived from Screening of “biosurfactant” producing isolates - finished Nothing incredibly new or interesting obtained Expression libraries are the best tool to exploit the diversity: Work with separate isolates is less productive and time-consuming Progress estimates: DL29- M34 20 % “Structures of novel surfactants etc – (screening stage)” DL30-M26 – 100 % “Clones, hyperexpression clones etc.” DL31-M34 – 100 % * “ Data sets of activities of obtained compounds” * all selected items characterized
