This lipase suicide inhibitor can be utilized to determine lipase and hydrolase activity, even in complex protein mixtures. The molar amount of enzyme can be determined by active site titration experiments. This inhibitor is soluble in both DMF and DMSO. Active site titrations should be performed in a pH range from 7-8 considering that higher pH values can lead to appreciable spontaneous hydrolysis. It is recommended to perform corresponding negative controls (buffer only).
We describe a method for quantification of displayed lipase on yeast cell surface. The strategy uses an organophosphonate ester to irreversibly inhibit the active lipase and release a detectable fluorescent group. The amount of displayed lipase can be represented as

The engineering of lipase B from Candida antarctica (CALB) by circular permutation has yielded over sixty hydrolase variants, and several show significantly improved catalytic performance. Here we report a detailed characterization of ten selected enzyme variants by kinetic and spectroscopic

The active site of Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) hosts the catalytic triad (Ser-His-Asp), an oxyanion hole and a stereospecificity pocket. During catalysis, the fast-reacting enantiomer of secondary alcohols places its medium-sized substituent in the stereospecificity pocket and its large
