The enzymatic acyl exchange of phospholipids with lipases

Phosphatidylcholine enrichment with medium chain fatty acids by immobilized phospholipase A1‐catalyzed acidolysis

“…18 Since 1994, the use of MCFAs in food products is recognized as safe by the FDA. 19 Several studies have been published concerning the modification of PLs using lipases, 2,[20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] phospholipase A 1 (PLA 1 ), [28][29][30] and PLA 2 31-35 by incorporation of saturated, mono-or polyunsaturated fatty acids. However, very few specific reports concerning the incorporation of MCFAs in soybean lecithin (PC) by lipase-mediated reactions have been published.…”

Comparative study of commercially available lipases in hydrolysis reaction of phosphatidylcholine

“…(14), Humicola lanuginosa (12), Rhizopus delemar (6,12,13,19,20), R. niveus (12), R. javanicus (12), R. arrhizus (17,18), Rhizopus sp. (19), Penicillium cyclopium (10,12), Aspergillus niger (10), Pseudomonas sp. (12,13), potato tubers (17), porcine pancreas (17), and calf pregastric (12), the reaction conditions used in these studies have varied widely, making it difficult to compare the various lipases in terms of their reactivities for phospholipids.…”

“…Although lipases from many sources have appeared in the literature on phospholipid modification research, including those from Mucor miehei (Lipozyme) (9)(10)(11)14,(16)(17)(18)22), M. javanicus (19), Candida cylindracea (rugosa ) (11)(12)(13)(17)(18)(19)(20), C. antartica (11), Candida sp. (14), Humicola lanuginosa (12), Rhizopus delemar (6,12,13,19,20), R. niveus (12), R. javanicus (12), R. arrhizus (17,18), Rhizopus sp. (19), Penicillium cyclopium (10,12), Aspergillus niger (10), Pseudomonas sp.…”

“…Phospholipids that exist in nature contain several fatty acids, the proportions depending on the source. For some practical applications, it is desirable to obtain phospholipids with specific fatty acids, which has prompted much research into changing the fatty acid composition of phospholipids by enzymatic conversion methods, such as hydrolysis (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14), esterification (6,(13)(14)(15)(16), or transesterification (6,10,14,(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22).…”

Enhanced productivity of electrospun polyvinyl alcohol nanofibrous mats using aqueous N,N-dimethylformamide solution and their application to lipase-immobilizing membrane-shaped catalysts

“…Lipase is a versatile enzyme used in industrial processes (19). Lipase catalyzes several reactions in organic solvents including transesterification (6), esterification (19), aminolysis (20), acyl exchange (21), and thiotransesterification (22). In this study, we employed the transesterification of (S)-glycidol with vinyl n-butyrate yielding glycidyl n-butyrate in isooctane as a model reaction with lipase.…”
