General description

Research area: Cell signaling

Lipase is a part of the alpha/beta-hydrolase fold superfamily of enzymes and is expressed in multiple tissues, including the liver, adipocytes, small intestine, and endothelial surface.[1]

Application

Lipase from Candida rugosa has been used:
  • for the resolution of chiral compounds and the transesterification production of biodiesel.[2]
  • for studying the immobilization of different lipase enzymes on graphene oxide support for high-efficiency biocatalysis.[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Candida rugosa lipase is known to catalyze hydrolysis reactions, especially the production of ricinoleic acid.
Lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols into glycerol and free fatty acids.[4]

Other Notes

1 U corresponds to the amount of enzyme which liberates 1 μmol oleic acid per minute at pH 8.0 and 40 °C (triolein, Cat. No. 62314 as substrate)
A highly stereospecific catalyst suitable for preparative resolution of racemic acids and alcohols[5]; Stereoselective ester synthesis[6]; Benzyl-alkyl transesterification under mild neutral conditions[7]; Enantioselectivity of some lipases: Review[8]
