An extracellular thermostable lipase from Amycolatopsis mediterranei DSM 43304 has been purified to homogeneity using ammonium sulphate precipitation followed by anion exchange chromatography and hydrophobic interaction chromatography. This protocol resulted in 398 fold purification with 36% final recovery. The purified A. mediterranei DSM 43304 lipase (AML) has an apparent molecular mass of 33 kDa. The N-terminal sequence, AANPYERGPDPTTASIEATR, showed highest similarity to a lipase from Streptomyces exfoliatus. The values of and for p-nitrophenyl palmitate (p-NPP) under optimal temperature (60°C) and pH (8.0) conditions were 0.10 ± 0.01 mM and 2.53 ± 0.06 mmol/minmg, respectively. The purified …
