Abstract

The lipase enzyme was isolated and purified from Staphylococcus argenteus MG2 (MTCC 12820) to homogeneity using ammonium sulphate precipitation followed by chromatographic techniques. This process resulted in a purification factor of 40.96-fold and a 26.25% recovery with a specific activity of 744.68 U mg-1. The molecular weight of the purified lipase was determined by SDS-PAGE to be 45 kDa. The Km and Vmax values of the purified lipase were calculated to be 4.95 mM and 79.36 µmol/min/mg-1, respectively. The maximum lipase activity was observed at pH 7.0 and 30 ºC with 100% stability, and it was also found to be stable in a broad range of pH (5-12) and temperature (30-90 ºC). The enzymatic activity of this Staphylococcal lipase was increased by Ca2+ to 105.71% at a concentration of 1 mM CaCl2. Additionally, it exhibited marked stability and activity in organic solvents. In the presence of 1% SDS surfactant, it retained 85.16% residual activity, while the metal chelator EDTA (inhibitor) reduced the lipase activity to 83.87% residual activity at a concentration of 1% w/v. This alkali-stable and thermo-stable lipase can be exploited by extending its use in the preparation of detergents and in various industrial and biotechnological applications.
