Recombinant production and characterization of a metal ion-independent Lysophospholipase from a hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus abyssi DSM25543.

Genome sequence of Pyrococcus abyssi DSM25543 contains a coding sequence (PAB_RS01410) for α/β hydrolase (WP_010867387.1). Structural analysis revealed the presence of a consensus motif GXSXG and a highly conserved catalytic triad in the amino acid sequence of α/β hydrolase that were characteristic features of lysophospholipases. A putative lysophospholipase from P. abyssi with its potential applications in oil degumming and starch processing was heterologously produced in E. coli Rosetta (DE3) pLysS in soluble form followed by its purification and characterization. The recombinant enzyme was found to be active at temperature of 40-90 °C and pH 5.5-7.0. However, the enzyme exhibited its optimum activity at 65 °C and pH 6.5. None of the metal ions (Mn
