Abstract
The incorporation of a non-specific lipase and a sn-1,3 specific one in a single immobilized system can be a promising approach for the exploitation of both lipases. A one-step immobilization platform mediated by an isocyanide-based multi-component reaction was applied to create co-cross-linked enzymes (co-CLEs) of lipases from Rhizomucor miehei (sn-1,3 specific) and Candida antarctica (non-specific). Glutaraldehyde was found to be effective cross-linker by producing specific activity of 16.9 U/mg and immobilization yield of 99 %. High activity recovery of up to 404 % was obtained for immobilized derivatives. Leaking experiment showed covalent nature of the cross-linking processes. BSA had considerable effect on the immobilization process, providing 87-100 % immobilization yields and up to 10 times improvement in the specific activity of the immobilized derivatives. Scanning electron microscopy images showed flower-like and rod-like structures for the CLEs prepared by glutaraldehyde and undecanedicarboxylic acid, respectively. The prepared co-CLEs were examined in non-selective enrichment of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from fish oil, showing capability of releasing up to 100 % of both omega-3 fatty acids within 8 h of the reaction. The reusability of co-CLEs in five successive cycles presented retaining 63-72 % of their initial activities after the fifth reuse cycle in the hydrolysis reaction.

Abstract
Objectives Post-marketing/surveillance studies show that most of the many vegetable oils that are sold with health-promoting claims or statements with high nutritional values and are beneficial against diseases are off-limits of related monographs/criteria. Defining the oil with a fast, cheap, and efficient analytical method is needed to express fatty acids in any herbal product to authenticate, trace, specify, and classify the content.The majority of the after marketing/surveillance studies shows that most of the many vegetable oils that are sold with health-promoting claims or statements with high nutritional values and are beneficial against diseases are off-limits of related monographs/criteria. Defining the oil with fast, cheap and efficient analytical method to express fatty acids in any herbal product, to authenticate, trace, specify and classify the content is needed. Materials and Methods Here, we define a new simple tool with a headspace single drop microextraction (HS-SDME) method coupled with a gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) for the analysis of common fatty acids (FAs) in oils. Linolenic acid, γ-linolenic acid, and linoleic acid in olive oil, thyme oil, and fish oil were determined. Derivatization was performed with 0.2 mL of 2 mol/L KOH in methanol to transfer the FAs of oils into their methyl esters (FAMEs). Then, FAMEs were extracted using a head space single drop, which is 2.0 μL of sodium dodecyl sulfate:1-butanol (1:3, v/v) mixture. Results The most suitable extraction condition was that 360 μL of the FAMEs, 2.0 mL vial, 0.07 g NaCl as a salting-out effect, 45 °C extraction temperature, and 35 min extraction time. The precision of the method was below 12%, with accuracy validated by the GC-FID reference method.The most suitable extraction condition was that 360 μL of the fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs), 2.0 mL vial, 0.07 g NaCl as a salting-out effect, 45 °C extraction temperature, and 35 min extraction time.

Efficiency of an alkaline, thermostable, detergent compatible, and organic solvent tolerant lipase with hydrolytic potential in biotreatment of wastewater. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 866:161066.

Abstract
Discharging the tannery wastewater into the environment is a serious challenge worldwide due to the release of severe recalcitrant pollutants such as oil compounds and organic materials. The biological treatment through enzymatic hydrolysis is a cheap and eco-friendly method for eliminating fatty substances from wastewater. In this context, lipases can be utilized for bio-treatment of wastewater in multifaceted industrial applications. To overcome the limitations in removing pollutants in the effluent, we aimed to identify a novel robust stable lipase (PersiLipase1) from metagenomic data of tannery wastewater for effective bio-degradation of the oily wastewater pollution. The lipase displayed remarkable thermostability and maintained over 81 % of its activity at 60 °C.After prolonged incubation for 35 days at 60°C, the PersiLipase1 still maintained 53.9 % of its activity. The enzyme also retained over 67 % of its activity in a wide range of pH (4.0 to 9.0). In addition, PersiLipase1 demonstrated considerable tolerance toward metal ions and organic solvents (e.g., retaining >70% activity after the addition of 100 mM of chemicals). Hydrolysis of olive oil and sheep fat by this enzyme showed 100 % efficiency. Furthermore, the PersiLipase1 proved to be efficient for biotreatment of oil and grease from tannery wastewater with the hydrolysis efficiency of 90.76 % ± 0.88. These results demonstrated that the metagenome-derived PersiLipase1 from tannery wastewater has a promising potential for the biodegradation and management of oily wastewater pollution.

Abstract
Enzymes play vital roles in diverse industrial sectors and are essential components of many industrial products. Immobilized enzymes possess higher resistance to environmental changes and can be recovered/recycled easily when compared to the free forms. The primary benefit of immobilization is protecting the enzymes from the harsh environmental conditions (e.g., elevated temperatures, extreme pH values, etc.). The immobilized enzymes can be utilized in various large-scale industries, e.g., medical, food, detergent, textile, and pharmaceutical industries, besides being used in water treatment plants. According to the required application, a suitable enzyme immobilization technique and suitable carrier materials are chosen. Enzyme immobilization techniques involve covalent binding, encapsulation, entrapment, adsorption, etc. This review mainly covers enzyme immobilization by various techniques and their usage in different industrial applications starting from 1992 until 2022. It also focuses on the multiscale operation of immobilized enzymes to maximize yields of certain products. Lastly, the severe consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic on global enzyme production is briefly discussed.

Studies on the Selectivity Mechanism of Wild-Type E. coli Thioesterase ‘TesA and Its Mutants for Medium- and Long-Chain Acyl Substrates. Catalysts 2022.

Abstract
E. coli thioesterase ‘TesA is an important enzyme in fatty acid production. Medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs, C6-C10) are of great interest due to their similar physicochemical properties to petroleum-based oleo-chemicals. It has been shown that wild-type ‘TesA had better selectivity for long-chain acyl substrates (≥C16), while the two mutants ‘TesAE142D/Y145G and ‘TesAM141L/E142D/Y145G had better selectivity for medium-chain acyl substrates. However, it is difficult to obtain the selectivity mechanism of substrates for proteins by traditional experimental methods. In this study, in order to obtain more MCFAs, we analyzed the binding mode of proteins (‘TesA, ‘TesAE142D/Y145G and ‘TesAM141L/E142D/Y145G) and substrates (C16/C8-N-acetylcysteamine analogs, C16/C8-SNAC), the key residues and catalytic mechanisms through molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations and the molecular mechanics Poisson–Boltzmann surface area (MM/PBSA). The results showed that several main residues related to catalysis, including Ser10, Asn73 and His157, had a strong hydrogen bond interaction with the substrates. The mutant region (Met141-Tyr146) and loop107–113 were mainly dominated by Van der Waals contributions to the substrates. For C16-SNAC, except for ‘TesAM141L/E142D/Y145G with large conformational changes, there were strong interactions at both head and tail ends that distorted the substrate into a more favorable high-energy conformation for the catalytic reaction. For C8-SNAC, the head and tail found it difficult to bind to the enzyme at the same time due to insufficient chain length, which made the substrate binding sites more variable, so ‘TesAM141L/E142D/Y145G with better binding sites had the strongest activity, and ‘TesA had the weakest activity, conversely. In short, the matching substrate chain and binding pocket length are the key factors affecting selectivity. This will be helpful for the further improvement of thioesterases.

Abstract
Food and agriculture waste (FAW) is a serious problem that is increasing globally. Wastage of raw materials or processed food due to various man-made activities is huge. This solid waste which is either being discarded by humans in their daily activities or an obligatory residue of agricultural processes is severely harming our environment. This becomes a major concern in densely populated agri-based countries, like India, China, and the USA. It is strongly debated that such issues need to be addressed very emphatically for sustainable development of ourselves and our surroundings. Lots of economic benefits can be obtained by reducing the food loss or converting the agricultural waste into useful products and these advantages can be in the form of better food security, reduced production cost, biodegradable products, and environment sustainability with cleaner options to reduce the ever-increasing global problem of garbage and waste management. Proper management of these substances can considerably lessen the risks to individual health. Reprocessing of waste is of great advantage as FAW has many components which may form an available resource to be converted to another useful product. Several approaches have been made for converting food waste into fruitful products. Bioconversion being the most prominent approach is helping us in a major way to overcome the problem of FAW. Microorganisms are at the forefront of this and have been extensively explored for their bioconversion potential. The present work focuses on the current state of food and agriculture waste and their valorization approaches. Through extensive literature review, we have highlighted and discussed the potential of microorganisms in bioconversion of waste, major types of functional ingredients derived during the process, and potential constraints in implementation of such state-of-the-art technology at industrial scale. The review also gives a brief technical overview of the conversion of waste products into energy generation and biofuels.

Abstract
The photoionization of two potential biofuel additives, γ-valerolactone (GVL, C5H8O2) and methyl butyrate (MB, C5H10O2) has been studied by imaging photoelectron photoion coincidence spectroscopy (iPEPICO) at the VUV beamline of the Swiss Light Source (SLS). The vibrational fine structure in the photoelectron spectrum is compared with a Franck-Condon simulation for the electronic ground-state band of the GVL cation. In the lowest energy dissociative photoionization channel of GVL, CO2 is lost, resulting in a 1-butene fragment ion with a 0 K appearance energy of E0 = 10.35 ± 0.01 eV. A newly calculated 1-butene ionization energy of 9.595 ± 0.015 eV establishes the reverse barrier height to CO2 loss as 66.6 ± 4.3 kJ mol-1. Methyl butyrate cations undergo McLafferty rearrangement, which explains the missing ion signal at the computed adiabatic ionization energy of 9.25 eV. After H transfer, ethylene is lost in the lowest energy dissociation channel to yield the methyl acetate enol ion at E0 = 10.24 ± 0.04 eV. This value connects the energetics of methyl butyrate with that of methyl acetate enol ion, which is established at ΔfHo0K[CH2C(OH)OCH3+] = 502 ± 6 kJ mol-1. Parallel to ethylene loss, methyl loss is also observed from the enol tautomer of the parent ion. Both samples exhibit low-energy nonstatistical dissociative ionization channels. In GVL, the methyl-loss abundance rises quickly but levels off suddenly in the energy range of the first electronically excited states, indicating nonstatistical competition between CH3 and CO2 loss. In MB, the major parallel dissociation channel is the loss of a methoxy radical. Calculations indicate that McLafferty rearrangement is inhibited on the excited-state surface. Indeed, breakdown curve modeling of this and a sequential CO-loss channel confirms a second statistical regime in dissociative photoionization, decoupled from ethylene loss.

Abstract
Lipases from Pseudomonas species are particularly useful due to their broader biocatalytic applications and temperature activity. In this study, we amplified the gene encoding wild-type cold-active lipase from the genome of psychrotrophic bacterium isolated from the Himalayan glacier. The isolated CRBC14 strain was identified as Pseudomonas sp. based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence. Lipase activity was determined by observing the hydrolysis zone on nutrient agar containing tributyrin (1%, v/v). The sequence analysis of cold-active lipase revealed a protein of 611 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 63.71 kDa. The three-dimensional structure of this lipase was generated through template-supported modeling. Distinct techniques stamped the model quality, following which the binding free energies of tributyrin and oleic acid in the complex state with this enzymatic protein were predicted through molecular mechanics generalized born surface area (MMGBSA). A relative comparison of binding free energy values of these substrates indicated tributyrin's comparatively higher binding propensity towards the lipase. Using molecular docking, we evaluated the binding activity of cold-active lipase against tributyrin and oleic acid. Our docking analysis revealed that the lipase had a higher affinity for tributyrin than oleic acid, as evidenced by our measurement of the hydrolysis zone on two media plates. This study will help to understand the bacterial diversity of unexplored Himalayan glaciers and the possible application of their cold-adapted enzymes.

Biological Methods in Biodiesel Production and Their Environmental Impact. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2021. [DOI: 10.3390/app112210946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
This publication presents the technologies of enzymatic biodiesel production in comparison to the conventional methods using acid and base catalysts. Transesterification with conventional catalysts has some disadvantages, and for this reason, alternative methods of biodiesel production have been investigated. These solutions include the replacement of chemical catalysts with biological ones, which show substrate specificity in relation to fats. Replacing chemical with biological catalysts causes elimination of some disadvantages of chemical processes, for instance: high temperatures of reaction, problematic process of glycerol purification, higher alcohol-to-oil molar ratios, and soap formation. Moreover, it causes operational cost reduction and has a positive environmental impact. This is due to the lower temperature of the process, which in turn translates into lower cost of equipment and lower GHG emissions associated with the need to provide less heat to the process. The increase of biofuels’ demand has led to the technology of enzymatic biodiesel production being constantly being developed. This research mainly focuses on the possibility of obtaining cheaper and more effective biocatalysts, as well as increasing the durability of enzyme immobilization on different materials.

Abstract
Mono alkyl fatty acid ester or methyl ethyl esters (biodiesel) are the promising alternative for fossil fuel or petroleum derived diesel with similar properties and could reduce the carbon foot print and the greenhouse gas emissions. Biodiesel can be produced from renewable and sustainable feedstocks like plant derived oils, and it is biodegradable and non-toxic to the ecosystem. The process for the biodiesel production is either through traditional chemical catalysts (Acid or Alkali Transesterification) or enzyme mediated transesterification, but as enzymes are natural catalysts with environmentally friendly working conditions, the process with enzymes are proposed to overcome the drawbacks of chemical synthesis. At present 95% of the biodiesel production is contributed by edible oils worldwide whereas recycled oils and animal fats contribute 10% and 6% respectively. Although every process has its own limitations, the enzyme efficiency, resistance to alcohols, and recovery rate are the crucial factors to be addressed. Without any benefit of doubt, production of biodiesel using renewable feedstocks and enzymes as the catalysts could be recommended for the commercial purpose, but further research on improving the efficiency could be an advantage.

Abstract
This article describes the successful synthesis of a novel nanocomposite of superparamagnetic multi-walled nanotubes with a four-arm polyethylene glycol amine polymer (mMWCNTs@4-arm-PEG-NH2). This composite was then employed as a support for the covalent co-immobilization of Rhizopus oryzae and Candida rugosa lipases under appropriate conditions. The co-immobilized lipases (CIL-mMWCNTs@4-arm-PEG-NH2) exhibited maximum specific activity of 99.626U/mg protein, which was 34.5-fold superior to that of free ROL, and its thermal stability was greatly improved. Most significantly, CIL-mMWCNTs@4-arm-PEG-NH2 was used to prepare biodiesel from waste cooking oil under ultrasound conditions, and within 120 min, the biodiesel conversion rate reached 97.64%. This was due to the synergy effect between ROL and CRL and the ultrasound-assisted enzymatic process, resulting in an increased biodiesel yield in a short reaction time. Moreover, after ten reuse cycles, the co-immobilized lipases still retained a biodiesel yield of over 78.55%, exhibiting excellent operational stability that is attractive for practical applications. Consequently, the combined use of a novel designed carrier, the co-immobilized lipases with synergy effect, and the ultrasound-assisted enzymatic reaction exhibited potential prospects for future applications in biodiesel production and various industrial applications.

Abstract
Biodiesel is a renewable, sulfur-free, toxic-free, and low carbon fuel which possesses enhanced lubricity. Transesterification is the easiest method employed for the production of biodiesel, in which the oil is transformed into biodiesel. Biocatalyst-mediated transesterification is more advantageous than chemical process because of its non-toxic nature, the requirement of mild reaction conditions, absence of saponification, easy product recovery, and production of high-quality biodiesel. Lipases are found to be the primary enzymes in enzyme-mediated transesterification process. Currently, researchers are using lipases as biocatalyst for transesterification. Lipases are extracted from various sources such as plants, microbes, and animals. Biocatalyst-based biodiesel production is not yet commercialized due to high-cost of purified enzymes and higher reaction time for the production process. However, research works are growing in the area of various cost-effective techniques for immobilizing lipase to improve its reusability. And further reduction in the production cost of lipases can be achieved by genetic engineering techniques. The reduction in reaction time can be achieved through ultrasonic-assisted biocatalytic transesterification. Biodiesel production by enzymatic transesterification is affected by many factors. Various methods have been developed to control these factors and improve biodiesel production. This report summarizes the various sources of lipase, various production strategies for lipase and the lipase-mediated transesterification. It is fully focused on the lipase enzyme and its role in biodiesel production. It also covers the detailed explanation of various influencing factors, which affect the lipase-mediated transesterification along with the limitations and scope of lipase in biodiesel production.

Abstract
The lipolytic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica produces cell-wall-associated lipases, namely Lip7p and Lip8p, that could have interesting properties as catalyst either in free (released lipase fraction-RLF) or cell-associated (cell-bound lipase fraction-CBLF) forms. Herein, a mixture of waste soybean frying oil, yeast extract and bactopeptone was found to favor the enzyme production. Best parameters for lipase activation and release from the cell wall by means of acoustic wave treatment were defined as: 26 W/cm2 for 1 min for CBLF and 52 W/cm2 for 2 min for RLF. Optimal pH and temperature values for lipase activity together with storage conditions were similar for both the free enzyme and cell-associated one: pH 7.0; T = 37 °C; and > 70% residual activity for 60 days at 4, - 4 °C and for 15 days at 30 °C.

Abstract
In this study, we overcame the limitations of single-enzyme system catalysis by codisplaying Candida rugosa lipase 1 (CRL1) and Rhizopus oryzae lipase (ROL) on the cell surfaces of the whole-cell catalyst Pichia pastoris to produce biodiesel from tallow seed oil. We screened double antibiotic-resistant strains on tributyrin plates, performed second electroporation based on single-displayed ROL on GS115/KpRS recombinants and single-displayed CRL1 on GS115/ZCS recombinants and obtained an ROL/CRL1 codisplay on P. pastoris GS115 surfaces. The maximum activity of the codisplaying GS115/pRCS recombinant was 470.59 U/g dried cells, which was 3.9-fold and 1.3-fold higher than that of single-displayed ROL and CRL1, respectively. When self-immobilized lipases were used as whole-cell catalysts, the rate of methyl ester production from GS115/pRCS harboring ROL and CRL1 was 1.4-fold higher than that obtained with single-displayed ROL. Therefore, biodiesel catalysis by synergetic codisplayed enzymes is an alternative biodiesel production strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Textile industry represents one prevalent activity worldwide, generating large amounts of highly contaminated and rich in azo dyes wastewater, with severe effects on natural ecosystems and public health. However, an effective and environmentally friendly treatment method has not yet been implemented, while concurrently, the increasing demand of modern societies for adequate and sustainable energy supply still remains a global challenge. Under this scope, the purpose of the present study was to isolate promising species of yeasts inhabiting wood-feeding termite guts, for combined azo dyes and textile wastewater bioremediation, along with biodiesel production. RESULTS Thirty-eight yeast strains were isolated, molecularly identified and subsequently tested for desired enzymatic activity, lipid accumulation, and tolerance to lignin-derived metabolites. The most promising species were then used for construction of a novel yeast consortium, which was further evaluated for azo dyes degradation, under various culture conditions, dye levels, as well as upon the addition of heavy metals, different carbon and nitrogen sources, and lastly agro-waste as an inexpensive and environmentally friendly substrate alternative. The novel yeast consortium, NYC-1, which was constructed included the manganese-dependent peroxidase producing oleaginous strains Meyerozyma caribbica, Meyerozyma guilliermondii, Debaryomyces hansenii, and Vanrija humicola, and showed efficient azo dyes decolorization, which was further enhanced depending on the incubation conditions. Furthermore, enzymatic activity, fatty acid profile and biodiesel properties were thoroughly investigated. Lastly, a dye degradation pathway coupled to biodiesel production was proposed, including the formation of phenol-based products, instead of toxic aromatic amines. CONCLUSION In total, this study might be the first to explore the application of MnP and lipid-accumulating yeasts for coupling dye degradation and biodiesel production.

Abstract
Lipases are biocatalysts with a significant potential to enable a shift from current pollutant manufacturing processes to environmentally sustainable approaches. The main reason of this prospect is their catalytic versatility as they carry out several industrially relevant reactions as hydrolysis of fats in water/lipid interface and synthesis reactions in solvent-free or non-aqueous media such as transesterification, interesterification and esterification. Because of the outstanding traits of Rhizopus oryzae lipase (ROL), 1,3-specificity, high enantioselectivity and stability in organic media, its application in energy, food and pharmaceutical industrial sector has been widely studied. Significant advances have been made in the biochemical characterisation of ROL particularly in how its activity and stability are affected by the presence of its prosequence. In addition, native and heterologous production of ROL, the latter in cell factories like Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Komagataella phaffii (Pichia pastoris), have been thoroughly described. Therefore, in this review, we summarise the current knowledge about R. oryzae lipase (i) biochemical characteristics, (ii) production strategies and (iii) potential industrial applications.

Abstract
The current study presents a method based on Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) for non-destructive, real-time analysis and portrayal of immobilization efficacy for lipase on a natural matrix namely, eggshell. Subsequently, qualitative biochemical reaction kinetics of immobilized lipase was also studied. Successful immobilization of lipase on eggshell was confirmed by the presence of a clear peak in 'A' scan of OCT image. From immobilization kinetics it is clearly observed that the thickness of the highest peak of the A-scan increases significantly and peak intensity saturated after 90 min of incubation. Hydrolysis of oil using immobilized lipase indicated that the release of free fatty acids increased up to 8 h during reaction and the result was in accordance with the 'B' scan data of the OCT system. Changes in scattering coefficient-based analysis were performed with respect to incubation time to showcase the immobilization process and hydrolysis reaction of lipase. Scanning electron microscope analysis with smoother surface indicated presence of lipase on eggshell matrices, with no further change after oil hydrolysis.

Abstract
Microbial lipases represent one of the most important groups of biotechnological biocatalysts. However, the high-level production of lipases requires an understanding of the molecular mechanisms of gene expression, folding, and secretion processes. Stable, selective, and productive lipase is essential for modern chemical industries, as most lipases cannot work in different process conditions. However, the screening and isolation of a new lipase with desired and specific properties would be time consuming, and costly, so researchers typically modify an available lipase with a certain potential for minimizing cost. Improving enzyme properties is associated with altering the enzymatic structure by changing one or several amino acids in the protein sequence. This review detailed the main sources, classification, structural properties, and mutagenic approaches, such as rational design (site direct mutagenesis, iterative saturation mutagenesis) and direct evolution (error prone PCR, DNA shuffling), for achieving modification goals. Here, both techniques were reviewed, with different results for lipase engineering, with a particular focus on improving or changing lipase specificity. Changing the amino acid sequences of the binding pocket or lid region of the lipase led to remarkable enzyme substrate specificity and enantioselectivity improvement. Site-directed mutagenesis is one of the appropriate methods to alter the enzyme sequence, as compared to random mutagenesis, such as error-prone PCR. This contribution has summarized and evaluated several experimental studies on modifying the substrate specificity of lipases.

Abstract
This paper addresses the issue of combining the usage of waste frying oil (WFO), as a feedstock, and a lipase produced in solid-state fermentation (SSF), as a biocatalyst, for semi-pilot scale production of biodiesel as fatty acid methyl esters (FAME). Two fungal mutants namely; Rhizopus stolonifer 1aNRC11 mutant F (1F) and Aspergillus tamarii NDA03a mutant G (3G) were used as a cocatalyst. The two mutants were cultivated separately by SSF in a tray bioreactor. The dried fermented solid of 1F and 3G mutants were used in a ratio of 3:1, respectively, for WFO transesterification. Optimization of several semi-pilot process stages including SSF and WFO transesterification reaction conditions resulted in 92.3% conversion of WFO to FAME. This FAME yield was obtained after 48 h using 10% cocatalyst (w/w of WFO), 10% water (w/w of WFO) and 3:1 methanol/ WFO molar ratio at 30 °C and 250 rpm. A preliminary economic evaluation of produced biodiesel price (190 $/Ton) is less than half the price of petroleum diesel in Egypt (401$/Ton) and is about 40.3% the price of biodiesel produced using a pure enzyme, which is a promising result. This strategy makes the biodiesel synthesis process greener, economical and sustainable.

Abstract
Lipases are among the most utilized enzymes in biocatalysis. In many instances, the main reason for their use is their high specificity or selectivity. However, when full modification of a multifunctional and heterogeneous substrate is pursued, enzyme selectivity and specificity become a problem. This is the case of hydrolysis of oils and fats to produce free fatty acids or their alcoholysis to produce biodiesel, which can be considered cascade reactions. In these cases, to the original heterogeneity of the substrate, the presence of intermediate products, such as diglycerides or monoglycerides, can be an additional drawback. Using these heterogeneous substrates, enzyme specificity can promote that some substrates (initial substrates or intermediate products) may not be recognized as such (in the worst case scenario they may be acting as inhibitors) by the enzyme, causing yields and reaction rates to drop. To solve this situation, a mixture of lipases with different specificity, selectivity and differently affected by the reaction conditions can offer much better results than the use of a single lipase exhibiting a very high initial activity or even the best global reaction course. This mixture of lipases from different sources has been called “combilipases” and is becoming increasingly popular. They include the use of liquid lipase formulations or immobilized lipases. In some instances, the lipases have been coimmobilized. Some discussion is offered regarding the problems that this coimmobilization may give rise to, and some strategies to solve some of these problems are proposed. The use of combilipases in the future may be extended to other processes and enzymes.

Abstract
Lipases are an important class of lipid hydrolyzing enzymes that play significant roles in many aspects of cell biology and digestion; they also have large roles in commercial food and biofuel preparation and are being targeted for pharmaceutical development. Given these, and many other biotechnological roles, sensitive and specific biosensors capable of monitoring lipase activity in a quantitative manner are critical. Here, we describe a Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based biosensor that originates from a custom-synthesized ester substrate displaying a peptide at one end and a dye acceptor at the other. These substrates were ratiometrically self-assembled to luminescent semiconductor quantum dot (QD) donors by metal affinity coordination using the appended peptide's terminal hexahistidine motif to give rise to the full biosensing construct. This resulted in a high rate of FRET between the QD donor and the proximal substrate's dye acceptor. The lipase hydrolyzed the intervening target ester bond in the peptide substrate which, in turn, displaced the dye acceptor containing component and altered the rate of FRET in a concentration-dependent manner. Specifics of the substrate's stepwise synthesis are described along with the sensors assembly, characterization, and application in a quantitative proof-of-concept demonstration assay that is based on an integrated Michaelis-Menten kinetic approach. The utility of this unique nanoparticle-based architecture within a sensor configuration is then discussed.

Abstract
The design of immobilized enzyme preparations is an important and relevant area of modern sciences and technologies. Immobilization of enzymes from animal sources (component I) on natural carriers (component II) increases the system stability by protecting the active site of the enzyme from deactivation; facilitates the separation and accelerates the recovery of the enzyme. This makes reuse possible and provides a significant reduction in operating costs. Hydrolytic enzymes (such as lipases) and polysaccharides (such as chitosan) are the most promising of such pairs of components. The main attention here is devoted to the discussion on lipase immobilization on polysaccharide (mainly - chitin and chitosan). Based on the analysis of the available literature, the most adequate method is the immobilization of lipase from porcine pancreas (LPP) on polysaccharide particles (such as chitin or chitosan) pre-treated with ultrasound (to increase the particle surface area) and glutaraldehyde (for particle activation) that shows reasonably high LPP activity and stability. In order to increase further the activity of the lipase, some authors proposed to incorporate a spacer in the form of 1,3-diaminopropane (or 1,3-diaminobutane) prior to activation of the surface of the chitosan particles. In particular cases, the use of chitin (instead of chitosan) may be an alternative solution for biotechnological applications. Recently the idea of constructing "supramolecular enzyme systems" realized in the so-called "coimmobilized multienzymatic systems" strategy. The most fascinating example is the combined assay of a mixture of native LPP, glycerol kinase (from Cellulomonas) and glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase (from Aerococcus viridans) linked by glutaraldehyde to chitosan (as shell for inorganic nanoparticle core). This material was placed on a Pt-electrode as biosensor and was successfully applied for amperometric determination of the triglyceride level in the serum of healthy and diseased person. Thus, the whole innovative research-production sequence is described by Aggarwal V. and Pundir C.S.: from simple components to advanced material and further biomedical application. Thus, the following approach of lipase immobilization appears the most promising for future applications: a few types of lipases or the combination of LPP with some other enzymes immobilized simultaneously on multifunctional carriers (as nanohybrids of inorganic core and polysaccharide shell).

Abstract
Initially, a new moderate halophilic strain was locally isolated from seawater. The partial 16S rRNA sequence analysis positioned the organism in Marinobacter genus and was named 'Marinobacter litoralis SW-45'. This study further demonstrates successful utilization of the halophilic M. litoralis SW-45 lipase (MLL) for butyl ester synthesis from crude palm fruit oil (CPO) and kernel oil (CPKO) in heptane and solvent-free system, respectively, using hydroesterification. Hydrolysis and esterification of enzymatic [Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase (TLL)] hydrolysis of CPO and CPKO to free fatty acids (FFA) followed by MLL-catalytic esterification of the concentrated FFAs with butanol (acyl acceptor) to synthesize butyl esters were performed. A one-factor-at-a-time technique (OFAT) was used to study the influence of physicochemical factors on the esterification reaction. Under optimal esterification conditions of 40 and 45 °C, 150 and 230 rpm, 50% (v/v) biocatalyst concentration, 1:1 and 5:1 butanol:FFA, 9% and 15% (w/v) NaCl, 60 and 15 min reaction time for CPO- and CPKO-derived FFA esterification system, maximum ester conversion of 62.2% and 69.1%, respectively, was attained. Gas chromatography (GC) analysis confirmed the products formed as butyl esters. These results showed halophilic lipase has promising potential to be used for biosynthesis of butyl esters in oleochemical industry.

Abstract
While probably originating from Africa, the plant Ricinus communis is found nowadays around the world, grown for industrial use as a source of castor oil production, wildly sprouting in many regions, or used as ornamental plant. As regards its pharmacological utility, a variety of medical purposes of selected parts of the plant, e.g., as a laxative, an anti-infective, or an anti-inflammatory drug, have been described already in the sixteenth century BC in the famous Papyrus Ebers (treasured in the Library of the University of Leipzig). Quite in contrast, on the toxicological side, the native plant has become the "poisonous plant 2018" in Germany. As of today, a number of isolated components of the plant/seeds have been characterized, including, e.g., castor oil, ricin, Ricinus communis agglutinin, ricinin, nudiflorin, and several allergenic compounds. This review mainly focuses on the most toxic protein, ricin D, classified as a type 2 ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP2). Ricin is one of the most potent and lethal substances known. It has been considered as an important bioweapon (categorized as a Category B agent (second-highest priority)) and an attractive agent for bioterroristic activities. On the other hand, ricin presents great potential, e.g., as an anti-cancer agent or in cell-based research, and is even explored in the context of nanoparticle formulations in tumor therapy. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the pharmacology and toxicology-related body of knowledge on ricin. Toxicokinetic/toxicodynamic aspects of ricin poisoning and possibilities for analytical detection and therapeutic use are summarized as well.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to isolate a novel esterase from a hypersaline lake by sequence-based metagenomics. The metagenomic DNA was isolated from the enriched hypersaline lake sediment. Degenerate primers targeting the conserved regions of lipolytic enzymes of halophilic microorganisms were used for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and a whole gene was identified by genome walking. The gene was composed of 783 bp, which corresponds to 260 amino acids with a molecular weight of 28.2 kDa. The deduced amino acid sequence best matched with the esterase from Halomonas gudaonensis with an identity of 91%. Recombinantly expressed enzyme exhibited maximum activity towards pNP-hexanoate with a kcat value of 12.30 s-1. The optimum pH and temperature of the enzyme were found as 9 and 30 °C, respectively. The effects of NaCl, solvents, metal ions, detergents and enzyme inhibitors were also studied. In conclusion, a novel enzyme, named as hypersaline lake "Acıgöl" esterase (hAGEst), was identified by sequence-based metagenomics. The high expression level, the ability to maintain activity at cold temperatures and tolerance to DMSO and metal ions are the most outstanding properties of the hAGEst.

Reuse of Lipase from Pseudomonas fluorescens via Its Step-by-Step Coimmobilization on Glyoxyl-Octyl Agarose Beads with Least Stable Lipases. Catalysts 2019.

Abstract
Coimmobilization of lipases may be interesting in many uses, but this means that the stability of the least stable enzyme determines the stability of the full combilipase. Here, we propose a strategy that permits the reuse the most stable enzyme. Lecitase Ultra (LU) (a phospholipase) and the lipases from Rhizomucor miehei (RML) and from Pseudomonas fluorescens (PFL) were immobilized on octyl agarose, and their stabilities were studied under a broad range of conditions. Immobilized PFL was found to be the most stable enzyme under all condition ranges studied. Furthermore, in many cases it maintained full activity, while the other enzymes lost more than 50% of their initial activity. To coimmobilize these enzymes without discarding fully active PFL when LU or RML had been inactivated, PFL was covalently immobilized on glyoxyl-agarose beads. After biocatalysts reduction, the other enzyme was coimmobilized just by interfacial activation. After checking that glyoxyl-octyl-PFL was stable in 4% Triton X-100, the biocatalysts of PFL coimmobilized with LU or RML were submitted to inactivation under different conditions. Then, the inactivated least stable coimmobilized enzyme was desorbed (using 4% detergent) and a new enzyme reloading (using in some instances RML and in some others employing LU) was performed. The initial activity of immobilized PFL was maintained intact for several of these cycles. This shows the great potential of this lipase coimmobilization strategy.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the use of a lyophilized fermented solid (named solid enzymatic preparation, SEP), with lipase activity, as a low-cost biocatalyst for esterification reactions of fatty acids present in acid raw materials for biodiesel synthesis. The SEP was obtained by solid-state fermentation (SSF) of soybean bran using the strain of Yarrowia lipolytica IMUFRJ 50682 and contains the lipases secreted by this yeast. The esterification reaction of ethanol and the predominant fatty acids present in different acid oil sources for biodiesel production (oleic, linoleic, stearic and palmitic acids) was investigated. Oleic acid conversion of above 85% was obtained after 24 h, using 30 wt% of SEP and ethanol/oleic acid molar ratio of 1, at 30 °C, in a reaction medium with and without solvent (n-hexane). Similar results were achieved with stearic (79%), palmitic (82%) and linoleic (90%) acids. The reusability of SEP was investigated over ten successive batches by washing it with different solvents (ethanol, water or n-hexane) between the cycles of ethyl oleate synthesis. Washing with water allowed the SEP to be reused for six cycles maintaining over 80% of the conversion reached in the first cycle. These results show the potential of this biocatalyst to reduce the content of free fatty acids in acid oils for biodiesel synthesis with a potential to be applied in a broad plethora of raw materials.

Abstract
The major drawbacks of native lipase applications in processes occurring in water or in organic solvents include: difficulties in catalyst recycling, low activity and operational instability. The immobilization of Burkholderia cepacia lipase by adsorption or covalent binding onto 5 differently functionalized carriers (silica, acrylic, cellulose-based) was performed to overcome this problem. The optimization of the reaction preparation in water-rich media was based on the hydrolytic reactivity of the preparations, as well as the thermal, operational and storage stabilities. Aminated silica carrier, activated with glutaraldehyde, was determined to be the carrier of choice. Regarding processes in water-restricted media, carrier selection was based on reactivity after drying and five preparations were chosen for the resolution of a non-equimolar isomer mixture (85:15 ratio of R to S isomers), treating the kinetic resolution of ((+)-(S/R)-1-[(1S,5R)-6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-en-2-yl)]ethanol as a model. The resulting acetate of R configuration exhibits interesting sensory properties. The operational stability of the chosen catalysts was tested over 15 consecutive batch processes; the most beneficial results were obtained with lipase adsorbed on an acrylic carrier. Conversion increased gradually from 10 to 84% over the first five processes, which could be explained by the product sorption onto the carrier. Full kinetic resolution with maximal substrate conversion (approximately 84%) was achieved and remained stable during the next 10 runs, an excellent result, and thus, the proposed system might be regarded as an exceptionally attractive solution for the perfume and cosmetic industries.

Abstract
For decades, microbial lipases are notably used as biocatalysts and efficiently catalyze various processes in many important industries. Biocatalysts are less corrosive to industrial equipment and due to their substrate specificity and regioselectivity they produced less harmful waste which promotes environmental sustainability. At present, thermostable and alkaline tolerant lipases have gained enormous interest as biocatalyst due to their stability and robustness under high temperature and alkaline environment operation. Several characteristics of the thermostable and alkaline tolerant lipases are discussed. Their molecular weight and resistance towards a range of temperature, pH, metal, and surfactants are compared. Their industrial applications in biodiesel, biodetergents, biodegreasing, and other types of bioconversions are also described. This review also discusses the advance of fermentation process for thermostable and alkaline tolerant lipases production focusing on the process development in microorganism selection and strain improvement, culture medium optimization via several optimization techniques (i.e., one-factor-at-a-time, surface response methodology, and artificial neural network), and other fermentation parameters (i.e., inoculums size, temperature, pH, agitation rate, dissolved oxygen tension (DOT), and aeration rate). Two common fermentation techniques for thermostable and alkaline tolerant lipases production which are solid-state and submerged fermentation methods are compared and discussed. Recent optimization approaches using evolutionary algorithms (i.e., Genetic Algorithm, Differential Evolution, and Particle Swarm Optimization) are also highlighted in this article.

Abstract
An extracellular lipase with 23,666.66 U/ml/min activity was produced by Aspergillus tamarii JGIF06 under submerged fermentation in mineral salt medium containing coconut oil (2.5 % v/v), tryptone (2 % w/v) and ammonium chloride (2 % w/v), with initial pH of 5 ± 0.2, incubated at 25 °C for 7 days on a rotary shaker at 120 rpm. A 7.9-fold increase in lipase-specific activity was recorded after purification by DEAE Sepharose ion exchange and Sephadex G200 column chromatography. The apparent molecular mass of this enzyme was revealed as 50 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The optimal lipase activity was recorded at pH 4 and 37 °C. The enzyme revealed broad specificity towards different vegetable oils. The Km and Vmax of the lipase on olive oil was found to be 330.4 mg and 53,690 U/ml/min, respectively. The lipase activity was stable in the presence of surfactants such as cetrimonium bromide, sodium dodecyl sulphate and Tween 80, and metal ions and reagents such as Ca2+, Ba2+ and 2-mercaptoethanol. However, the activity was greatly reduced in the presence of organic solvents such as chloroform. The stain removal potential of the crude lipase was determined on polycotton fabric pieces stained with peanut oil. Lipase added to cold water alone significantly enhanced the removal of stain by 152 %. The addition of lipase also improved the stain removal efficiency of a commercially available detergent in the presence of either cold (25 ± 2 °C) or hot (65 ± 2 °C) water. The current findings suggest the potentiality of this enzyme for energy-efficient biocatalytic application.

Abstract
Biodiesel has received widespread attention as a sustainable, environment-friendly, and alternative source of energy. It can be derived from plant, animal, and microbial organisms in the form of vegetable oil, fats, and lipids, respectively. However, biodiesel production from such sources is not economically feasible due to extensive downstream processes, such as trans-esterification and purification. To obtain cost-effective biodiesel, these bottlenecks need to be overcome. Escherichia coli, a model microorganism, has the potential to produce biodiesel directly from ligno-cellulosic sugars, bypassing trans-esterification. In this process, E. coli is engineered to produce biodiesel using metabolic engineering technology. The entire process of biodiesel production is carried out in a single microbial cell, bypassing the expensive downstream processing steps. This review focuses mainly on production of fatty acid and biodiesel in E. coli using metabolic engineering approaches. In the first part, we describe fatty acid biosynthesis in E. coli. In the second half, we discuss bottlenecks and strategies to enhance the production yield. A complete understanding of current developments in E. coli-based biodiesel production and pathway optimization strategies would reduce production costs for biofuels and plant-derived chemicals.

Abstract
This review is a short synopsis of some of the latest breakthroughs in the areas of lignocellulosic conversion to fuels and utilization of oils for biodiesel. Although four lignocellulosic ethanol factories have opened in the USA and hundreds of biodiesel installations are active worldwide, technological improvements are being discovered that will rapidly evolve the biofuels industry into a new paradigm. These discoveries involve the feedstocks as well as the technologies to process them.

Abstract
Core-shell polymer particles with different properties were produced through combined suspension-emulsion polymerizations and employed as supports for immobilization of lipase B from Candida antarctica. In order to evaluate how the morphology of the particles affects the immobilization parameters, empirical models were developed to describe the performance of the biocatalysts as a function of the specific area, volume of pores and average pore diameter of the supports. It was observed that the average pore sizes did not affect the enzymatic activities in the analyzed range of pore sizes. It was also observed that the increase of the specific area (and of the volume of pores) led to higher enzyme loadings, also leading to an increase in the esterification activity, as expected. However, when the specific area (and volume of pores) increased, the hydrolytic activity and the retention of hydrolytic activity of the biocatalysts decreased, indicating the existence of diffusional limitations for some hydrolytic reactions, probably because of the high reaction rates.

Abstract
Fossil fuels are consumed so rapidly that it is expected that the planet resources will be soon exhausted. Therefore, it is imperative to develop alternative and inexpensive new technologies to produce sustainable fuels, for example biodiesel. In addition to hydrolytic and esterification reactions, lipases are capable of performing transesterification reactions useful for the production of biodiesel. However selection of the lipases capable of performing transesterification reactions is not easy and consequently very few biodiesel producing lipases are currently available. In this work we first isolated 1,016 lipolytic microorganisms by a qualitative plate assay. In a second step, lipolytic bacteria were analyzed using a colorimetric assay to detect the transesterification activity. Thirty of the initial lipolytic strains were selected for further characterization. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that 23 of the bacterial isolates were Gram negative and 7 were Gram positive, belonging to different clades. Biofuel production was analyzed and quantified by gas chromatography and revealed that 5 of the isolates produced biofuel with yields higher than 80% at benchtop scale. Chemical and viscosity analysis of the produced biofuel revealed that it differed from biodiesel. This bacterial-derived biofuel does not require any further downstream processing and it can be used directly in engines. The freeze-dried bacterial culture supernatants could be used at least five times for biofuel production without diminishing their activity. Therefore, these 5 isolates represent excellent candidates for testing biofuel production at industrial scale.

Biocatalytic synthesis of flavor ester "pentyl valerate" using Candida rugosa lipase immobilized in microemulsion based organogels: effect of parameters and reusability. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2014; 2014:353845. [PMID: 25093166 PMCID: PMC4100389 DOI: 10.1155/2014/353845] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2014] [Revised: 05/05/2014] [Accepted: 05/19/2014] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Pentyl valerate was synthesized biocatalytically using Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) immobilized in microemulsion based organogels (MBGs). The optimum conditions were found to be pH 7.0, temperature of 37°C, ratio of concentration of water to surfactant (Wo) of 60, and the surfactant sodium bis-2-(ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT) for MBG preparation. Although kinetic studies revealed that the enzyme in free form had high affinity towards substrates (Km = 23.2 mM for pentanol and 76.92 mM for valeric acid) whereas, after immobilization, the Km values increased considerably (74.07 mM for pentanol and 83.3 mM for valeric acid) resulting in a slower reaction rate, the maximum conversion was much higher in case of immobilized enzyme (~99%) as compared to free enzyme (~19%). Simultaneous effects of important parameters were studied using response surface methodology (RSM) conjugated with Box-Behnken design (BBD) with five variables (process parameters), namely, enzyme concentration, initial water content (Wo), solvent used for MBG preparation, substrate ratio and time, and response as the final product formation, that is, pentyl valerate (%). The MBGs were reused for 10 consecutive cycles for ester synthesis. Efficacy of AOT/isooctane as dehydrating agent for extracting excess water from MBGs was found to exert a positive effect on the esterification reaction.
