Abstract

An extracellular alkaline lipase of alkalophilic Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes F-111 was purified to homogeneity. The apparent molecular weight determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was 32,000, and the isoelectric point was 7.3. With p-nitrophenyl esters as its substrates, the enzyme shows preference for C12 acyl and C14 acyl groups. It was stable in the pH range of 6 to 10, which coincides with the optimum pH range.
