Abstract

A novel gene coding for a LipA-like lipase with 283 amino acids and a molecular mass of 32 kDa was isolated and characterized from a metagenomic library prepared from mangrove sediment from the south Brazilian coast. LipA was 52% identical to a lipolytic enzyme from an uncultured bacterium and shared only low identities (
