Study of a lipase from Candida rugosa Diddens and Lodder
1993
Lipasic system of Candida rugosa (CBS 613) strain was studied. The enzyme was purified in one step by hydrophobic chromatography. The properties of this lipase were determined. It is an oligomeric enzyme composed of five identical monomers of 46 kg · mol−1. Its optimum reaction conditions are pH = 7 and temperature = 40°C. This enzyme presents a rapid thermal denaturation and then a more stable form. It is a cell-bound lipase which is induced by triacyl glycerols. This enzyme presents a high specificity for external positions on glycerol.

Lipase-enhanced activity in flavour ester reactions by trapping enzyme conformers in the presence of interfaces
1998
In order to improve the lipase-catalyzed synthesis of flavour esters, we have used the reported strategy of interfacial activation-based molecular (bio)imprinting [Mingarro et al. 1995. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 92: 3308], later called trapping in the presence of amphiphile interfaces (TPI) [Mingarro et al. 1996. Biochemistry 35: 9935]. Five lipases of fungal and mammalian origin typically used for esterification process have been explored to improve production by TPI treatment. A marked enhancement of enzymatic activity has been observed in all TPI-treated lipases assayed and the activation factor obtained was up to 90-fold. The dependence on chain length of acyl donors in the esterifi…
Biocatalyzed acidolysis of soybean oil triacylglycerols to increase oleic acid content
2004
Lipase catalyzed acidolysis of triacylglycerols (TAG) of soybean oil with oleic acid in organic solvent was studied; immobilized lipase from Rhizomucor miehei was used and the effects of reaction time, incubation temperature and enzyme load on TAG total and positional fatty acid (FA) percentage compositions were investigated. The results show that oleic acid incorporation was high after 24 and 48 h, while after 72 h a lower level of oleic acid in TAG was observed. Moreover, for the reactions carried out at 30 and 40 degrees C, it was observed that the oleic acid level was about 46.5% while ligtly higher values (about 49%) were observed at 50 degrees C; however, under this last condition, th…
Effects on lipoprotein subclasses of combined expression of human hepatic lipase and human apoB in transgenic rabbits
2003
Objective— The effects of combined expression of human hepatic lipase (HL) and human apolipoprotein B (apoB) on low-density lipoprotein (LDL) subclasses were examined in rabbits, a species naturally deficient in HL activity. Methods and Results— In apoB-transgenic rabbit plasma, >80% of the protein was found in the 1.006- to 1.050-g/mL fraction. Gradient gel electrophoresis (GGE) of this fraction revealed two distinct species, designated large and small LDL. A denser fraction (d=1.050 to 1.063 g/mL) contained small LDL as well as another discrete LDL subspecies, designated very small LDL. Expression of HL resulted in reductions in protein concentrations in the 1.006- to 1.050-g/mL densi…
