To search for new cold-active lipases, a metagenomic library was constructed using cold-sea sediment samples at Edison Seamount and was screened for lipolytic activities by plating on a tricaprylin medium. Subsequently, a fosmid clone was selected, and the whole sequence
Colloids and surfaces. B, Biointerfaces, 75(1), 47-56 (2009-09-15)
A model protein (lysozyme) was incorporated into monoolein-based reverse hexagonal (H(II)) mesophase and its structure effects were characterized by small angle X-ray scattering, ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, and rheological measurements. Modifications in molecular organization of the H(II) mesophases as well as the

A new model of enzymatic 1,3-specific alcoholysis of triacylglycerols has been developed. The irreversibility of the acyl bounds cleavage in glycerides, a reversible monoglycerides isomerization and an irreversible enzyme deactivation have been assumed. The Ping Pong Bi Bi mechanism with

The effects of various detergents and pH on the interfacial binding and activity of two fungal lipases from Yarrowia lipolytica (YLLIP2) and Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL) were investigated using trioctanoin emulsions as well as monomolecular films spread at the air-water interface.

Tensiometry (the pendant drop technique), interfacial shear rheology, and ellipsometry have been used to study the effect of polar lipids that are generated during fat digestion on the behavior of lipases at the oil-water interface. Both Sn-1,3 regiospecific and nonregiospecific
