Application

Lipases are used industrially for the resolution of chiral compounds and the transesterification production of biodiesel.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Tri-, di-, and monoglycerides are hydrolyzed (in decreasing order of rate).

Lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols into glycerol and free fatty acids.

Unit Definition

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)

Analysis Note

enzyme activity: the optimum temperature is 45 °C, the optimum pH is 7.0 (highly active from pH 6-8), the activity is inhibited by Ag+ and Pb+

A preliminary study of 2-amino-4-aryl-3,5-dicarbonitrile-6-thiopyridines as new potential antimicrobial drugs was performed. Special emphasis was placed on the selection of the structure of target pyridine derivatives with the highest biological activity against different types of Gram-stained bacteria by lipopolysaccharide (LPS).

An enzymatic route for phosphorous-carbon- bond formation is developed by discovering new promiscuous activity of lipase. This biocatalytic transformation of phosphorous-carbon- bond addition leads to biologically and pharmacologically relevant α-acyloxy phosphonates with methyl group in α-position. A series of target
