摘要
An extracellular esterase gene estK was identified in Pseudomonas putida mt-2 and overexpressed at high levels in Escherichia coli. The recombinant EstK enzyme was purified and characterized kinetically against p-nitrophenyl ester and other aryl-alkyl ester substrates and found to be selective for hydrolysis of acetyl ester substrates with high activity for p-nitrophenyl acetate (k(cat) 5.5 Sec(-1), K-M 285 mu M). Recombinant EstK was found to catalyze deacetylation of acetylated beech xylan, indicating a possible in vivo function for this enzyme, and partial deacetylation of a synthetic polymer (poly(vinylacetate)). EstK was found to catalyze enantioselective hydrolysis of racemic 1-phenylethyl acetate, generating 1R-phenylethanol with an enantiomeric excess of 80.4%.
