Abstract

A lipase gene from Rhizopus niveus( rnl) was isolated by homologous cloning method and subcloned into the vector of pPICZαA. The resultant recombinant plasmid pPICZαA-rnl was digested by SacI and transformed into the competent cells of Pichia pastoris strain X-33 through electroporation. The results showed that the gene was expressed successfully in the Pichia pastoris X-33. The optimal pH and temperature of the recombinant lipase were 35℃ and 8. 5,respectively. The activity of the recombinant lipase was stimulated by 1mmol / L Mn2 +,Ca2 +,K+and 1% Tween-20,Tween-80,TritonX-100. The recombinant lipase showed high activity toward trilaurin( C12).
