The cloning, sequencing and high-level expression of the gene encoding extracellular lipase from  Streptomyces rimosus  R6-554W have been recently described, and the primary structure of this gene product was deduced using a bioinformatic approach. In this study, capillary electrophoresis-on-the-chip and mass spectrometry were used to characterize native and overexpressed extracellular lipase protein from  S. rimosus . The exact molecular mass of the wild-type and the overexpressed lipase, determined by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry, were in excellent agreement (Δm=0.11 Da and Δm=0.26 Da, respectively) with a value of 24165.76 Da calculated from the structure deduced from the nucleotide sequence, considering the mature enzyme with all six cysteines forming disulfide bridges. The primary structure derived from the nucleotide sequence was completely verified using a combination of tryptic digestion and formic acid cleavage of the protein, followed by peptide mass fingerprinting. Selected peptides were further investigated by MALDI low-energy collision-induced dissociation hybrid tandem mass spectrometry, allowing the unambiguous determination of their predicted amino acid sequence. No post-translational modifications of mature  S. rimosus  lipase were detected. Comparison of the peptide mass fingerprints from the reduced and non-reduced overexpressed enzyme unequivocally revealed three intramolecular disulfide bonds with the following linkages: C27-C52, C93-C101 and C151-C198.
