Abstract

An alkaline lipase isolated from Vibrio metschnikovii RH530 and a polynucleotide sequence encoding the same are provided. The isolated alkaline lipase has an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5 and the polynucleotide having a base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4 encodes the alkaline lipase. The isolated alkaline lipase exhibits an optimal activity at a high pH level, that is, at pH 10˜11, and has very high ratio of residual enzyme activity and high compatibility with a surfactant, so that it can be suitably used as an enzyme for a laundry detergent.

Claims (13)

1. An isolated alkaline lipase having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5.

2. A isolated polynucleotide comprising a sequence encoding an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5.

3. The polyucleotide of claim 2 , comprising a nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4.

4. The polyucleotide of claim 2 , comprising nucleotide sequences of SEQ ID NO: 2 and SEQ ID NO: 4.

5. The polyucleotide of claim 2 , comprising a nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.

6. A recombinant vector comprising the polynucleotide of claim 2 .

7. The recombinant vector of claim 6 , wherein the recombinant vector is pHL1, pHLB29 or pHAAH38.

8. A transformed host cell comprising the recombinant vector of claim 6 .

9. The transformed host cell of claim 8 , wherein the transformed host cell is Escherichia coli.

10. The transformed host cell of claim 9 , wherein the transformed host cell is HB101 (pHL1).

11. A method of producing an alkaline lipase comprising culturing the transformed host cell of claim 8 .

12. A detergent composition comprising the alkaline lipase of claim 1 .

13. The transformed host cell of claim 8 , wherein the recombinant vector is pHL1, pHLB29 or pHAAH38.
