The development of an efficient and economical purification method is required to obtain a pure and mature recombinant protein in a simple process with high efficiency. Hence, a new technique was invented to cleave the tags from the N-terminal region of recombinant fusion HZ lipase in the absence of protease treatment. The recombinant pET32b/rHZ lipase was overexpressed into E. coli BL21 (DE3). Affinity chromatography was performed as the first step of purification. The stability of the protein was then tested in different temperatures. The fused Trx-His-S-tags to the rHZ lipase was cleaved by treatment of the fusion protein at 20 °C in 100 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.0. The precipitated tag was removed, and the mature recombinant enzyme was further characterized to specify its properties. A purification yield of 78.9% with 1.3-fold and 21.8 mg total purified mature protein was obtained from 50 mL starting a bacterial culture. N-terminal sequencing of purified recombinant HZ lipase confirmed the elimination of the 17.4 kDa tag from one amino acid before the native start codon (Methionine) of the protein. The mature rHZ lipase was highly active at 65 °C and a pH of 7.0, with a half-life of 2 h 15 min at 55 °C and 45 min at 60 °C. The rHZ lipase showed a preference for the hydrolysis of natural oil with a long carbon chain (C18) and medium-size acyl chain p-nitrophenyl esters (C10). The enzyme remained stable in the presence of nonpolar organic solvents, and its activity was increased by polar organic solvents. This study thus demonstrates a simple and convenient purification method which resulted in the high yield of mature enzyme along with unique and detailed biochemical characterization of rHZ lipase, making the enzyme favorable in various industrial applications.
