一般描述

Lipase is produced by several animals, microbes, and plants. Lipase from Mucor sp. is a fungal lipase. It is a member of the serine hydrolase family.

应用

Lipases are used industrially for the resolution of chiral compounds and the transesterification production of biodiesel.
Lipase from Mucor miehei has been used in a study to assess the nonthermal effect of microwave irradiation in nonaqueous enzymatic esterification. It has also been used in a study to investigate the hydrolysis of virgin coconut oil using immobilized lipase in a batch reactor.
Lipase from Mucor miehei can be used to drive the synthesis of flavor esters.

生化/生理作用

Microbial lipase has a wide industrial application due to its stability, broad substrate specificity, and selectivity. It may be used in the synthesis of biosurfactants and finds application in organic chemical processing, dairy industry, oleochemical industry, detergent formulations, paper, cosmetics, nutrition, and the pharmaceutical industry.
Mucor miehei lipase hydrolizes triglycerides and catalyzes the synthesis of esters from glycerol and long-chain fatty acids in vitro. Tri-, di-, and monoglycerides are hydrolyzed (in decreasing order of rate).

单位定义

One unit will hydrolyze 1.0 microequivalent of fatty acid from a triglyceride in 1 hr at pH 7.7 at 37 ℃ using olive oil.

分析说明

Protein determined by biuret.
