“…Lipase hyperactivation exhibited after immobilization on hydrophobic supports is caused by lid movements, exposing the active center of the lipase to the medium, which changes the conformational balance between the open and closed form of the lipase [25][26][27][28][29], and fully displaces the equilibrium towards the open active form of the lipase, which is fixed by adsorption on the hydrophobic support through its hydrophobic pocket [17] (Figure 1). This mechanism facilitates the entry of the substrate, resulting in easier enzymatic hydrolysis [16,17,34,73].…”

“…Lipases are the most used enzymes in biocatalysis due to their high activity, specificity, selectivity, and robustness in a variety of reaction media [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. Lipases have a peculiar catalytic mechanism, called interfacial activation, which is based on the interaction of the lipase with hydrophobic structures, which causes deep conformational changes on the structure of the active site of the lipase and its consequent enzyme activation [25][26][27][28][29], permitting the enzyme to act in the hydrolysis of insoluble drops of oils and be adsorbed on any hydrophobic surface [30][31][32][33][34].…”

“…Following these conformational changes, Leu17 in the loop between ␤1 and ␣1 moves to a position near the nucleophile Ser87 and forms the oxyanion hole. As found in R. miehei lipase (RmL) [45], H. lanuginosa lipase (HlL) [30], and the human pancreatic lipase-porcine colipase complex [46], the oxyanion hole in PcL is not preformed but is generated by the opening of the lid. However, the catalytic triads of PcL and PgL in different conformations are virtually superimposable (Fig.…”

“…In the crystal structure of RdL, the two molecules in the asymmetric unit showed different lid conformations [29]: one of them is closed and the other is in an intermediate state between the open and closed forms. All these lipase crystals obtained in the open conformation were grown in the presence of 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol (MPD) [11,18,30,38]. It seems likely that this specific crystallization medium may exert a positive influence on stabilizing the open conformation of lipases.…”
