Title: Two polyurethanases PueA and PueB are major extracellular lipases partly secreted by the mediation of their cognate ABC exporter AprDEF in Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5 Zha DM, Wang XL, Xiao XH, Shi HQ, Yang YW, Shi X, Kang YB Ref: Lett Appl Microbiol, :, 2021 : PubMed
Two polyurethanases PueA and PueB from P. protegens Pf-5 have been reported to have hydrolytic activity against synthetic p-nitrophenyl palmitate of lipase substrate, and PueA may play a more effective role in this activity. However, it is still unknown whether PueA and PueB play similar parts in the lipase activity against natural acylglycerols and achieve the extracellular secretion via their cognate ABC exporter AprDEF. In this study, we investigated these questions through the construction of four markerless deletion mutants in Pf5139 (deltaupp derivative of Pf-5), two heterologous co-expression strains and their three control strains in lipase-free Escherichia coli BL21(DE3), and detected their lipase activities by the tributyrin plate assay and the liquid culture assay. The results showed that PueA and PueB, classified as subfamily I.3 lipases, are major extracellular lipases involved in the uptake of oil in Pf-5, and PueA plays a leading role in extracellular lipase activity. In addition, the extracellular secretion of PueA and PueB can be partly mediated via AprDEF in Pf-5 and BL21(DE3). Finally, PueA and PueB are also able to achieve the extracellular secretion without the assistance of AprDEF in Pf-5 and BL21(DE3).
