Biocatalytic synthesis of vitamin A palmitate using immobilized lipase produced by recombinant Pichia pastoris

In this work, the Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB), produced by recombinant Pichia pastoris , was immobilized and used to synthesize vitamin A palmitate by transesterification of vitamin A acetate and palmitic acid in organic solvent. The reaction conditions including the type of solvent, temperature, rotation speed, particle size, and molar ratio between the two substrates were investigated. It turned out that the macroporous resin HPD826 serving as a carrier showed the highest activity (ca. 9200 U g^?1) among all the screened carriers. It was found that the transesterification kinetic of the immobilized CALB followed the ping pong Bi‐Bi mechanism and the reaction product acetic acid inhibited the enzymatic reaction with an inhibition factor of 2.823 mmol L^?1. The conversion ability of the immobilized CALB was 54.3% after 15 cycles. In conclusion, the present work provides a green route for vitamin A palmitate production using immobilized CALB to catalyze the transesterification of vitamin A acetate and palmitic acid.     

Cloning, expression and characterization of a lipase gene from the Candida antarctica ZJB09193 and its application in biosynthesis of vitamin A esters

Lipase is one of the most important industrial enzymes, which has been widely used in the preparation of food additives, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals industries. In order to obtain a large amount of lipase, the lipase gene from Candida antarctica ZJB09193 was cloned, and expressed in Pichia pastoris with the vector pPICZαA. Under the optimal conditions, the yield of recombinant lipase in the culture broth reached 3.0 g/L. After purification, the properties of recombinant lipase were studied: the optimum pH and temperature were pH 8.0 and 52°C, Ca(2+) activated the activity of lipase, and the apparent K(m) and V(max) values for p-nitrophenyl acetate were 0.34 mM and 7.36 μmol min(-1) mg(-1), respectively. Furthermore, the recombinant lipase was immobilized on pretreated textile for biosynthesis of vitamin A esters. In a system of n-hexane, 0.3 g immobilized recombinant lipase was used in the presence of 0.06 g vitamin A acetate and 0.55 mmol fatty acid (nine different fatty acids were tested). The yield of all vitamin A esters exceeded 78% in 7h at 30°C except using lactic acid and hexanoic acid as substrates. After optimization, the yield of vitamin A palmitate reached 87%. This study has the potential to be developed into industrial application.

The esterification degree was 91% under these conditions. The purity of 2-ethylhexyl palmitate was 98% after purification consisting washing by water and evaporation to remove the organic solvent.     

High dietary vitamin A interferes with tissue α-tocopherol concentrations in fattening pigs: a study that examines administration and withdrawal times

This study aimed to assess the interaction between different dietary vitamin A (dVitA) levels and the same concentration of vitamin E (100 IU all-rac-α-tocopheryl acetate/kg feed) in growing-finishing pigs. In the first experiment, two fat sources × two dVitA levels (0 v. 100 000 IU) were used. The supplementation of 100 000 IU dVitA induced a range of 5.13 to 30.03 μg retinol/g liver, 62.78 to 426.88 μg retinol palmitate/g liver, and 0.60 to 1.96 μg retinol/g fat. Dietary fat did not affect retinol or retinyl palmitate deposition in pigs. The high concentration of dVitA produced lower fat and liver α-tocopherol concentrations, and increased susceptibility of muscle tissue to oxidation. A second experiment was carried out to study the retinol and α-tocopherol retention at different withdrawal times prior to slaughter (two dVitA levels; 0 v. 100 000 IU). A high dose of 100 000 IU vitamin A during a short 2-week period was enough to induce α-tocopherol depletion in liver and fat to a similar extent as when 100 000 IU were administered during the whole fattening. Muscle, fat and liver α-tocopherol concentrations were not affected by dVitA in the 1300-13 000 IU/kg range, but liver α-tocopherol concentration was higher when vitamin A was removed from the vitamin mix 5 weeks prior to slaughter (experiment 3).     

Improvement of lipase activity by synergistic immobilization on polyurethane and its application for large-scale synthesizing vitamin A palmitate

Abstract

We have developed an improved and effective method to immobilize lipase on hydrophobic polyurethane foam (PUF) with different modifications. PUF was treated with hydrochloric acid to increase the active sites and then the active carboxyl groups and amino groups were exposed. Enzyme activity of lipase immobilized on PUF-HCL (8000?U/g) was 50% higher than that of lipase immobilized on PUF (5300?U/g). There is an increase in the activity of the immobilized lipase on AA/PEI-modified support (115,000?U/g), a 2.17-fold increase compared to lipase immobilized on the native support was observed. The activity of immobilized lipases was dependent on the PEI molecular weight, with best results from enzyme immobilized on PUF-HCL-AA/PEI (MW 70,000?Da, 12,800?U/g)), which was 2.41 times higher compared to that of the same enzyme immobilized on PUF. These results suggest that the activity of immobilized lipase is influenced by the support surface properties, and a moderate support surface micro-environment is crucial for improving enzyme activity. Finally, the immobilized lipase was used for the production of vitamin A palmitate. The immobilized lipase can be reused for up to 18 times with a conversion rate above 90% for 12?h in a 3?L bioreactor.

• Research highlights

• An efficient immobilization protocol on polyurethane foam was developed

• Polyethyleneimine and acetic acid were used to regulate the micro-environment concurrently

• The activity of lipase immobilized on PUF-HCL-AA/PEI was improved by 2.41 times

• Immobilized lipase exhibited excellent operational stability for vitamin A palmitate synthesis

     

Lipase-mediated conversion of vegetable oils into biodiesel using ethyl acetate as acyl acceptor

Ethyl acetate was explored as an acyl acceptor for immobilized lipase-catalyzed preparation of biodiesel from the crude oils of Jatropha curcas (jatropha), Pongamia pinnata (karanj) and Helianthus annuus (sunflower). The optimum reaction conditions for interesterification of the oils with ethyl acetate were 10% of Novozym-435 (immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B) based on oil weight, ethyl acetate to oil molar ratio of 11:1 and the reaction period of 12h at 50 degrees C. The maximum yield of ethyl esters was 91.3%, 90% and 92.7% with crude jatropha, karanj and sunflower oils, respectively under the above optimum conditions. Reusability of the lipase over repeated cycles in interesterification and ethanolysis was also investigated under standard reaction conditions. The relative activity of lipase could be well maintained over twelve repeated cycles with ethyl acetate while it reached to zero by 6th cycle when ethanol was used as an acyl acceptor.     

Lipase catalyzed transesterification of soybean oil using ethyl acetate,an alternative acyl acceptor

Methanol, the acyl acceptor usually used in the commercial process of biodiesel production, is associated with some problems such as immiscibility with oils and lipase deactivation. To overcome these barriers, ethyl acetate was proposed as an alternative acyl acceptor for the production of biodiesel from soybean oil using an immobilized lipase, Novozym 435, Ethyl acetate mixed well with soybean oil, and only slightly inhibited the lipase activity by 5%. The effects of various environmental parameters, such as the composition of soybean oil and ethyl acetate, lipase content, and reaction temperature, were investigated to determine the optimal conditions for biodiesel production. As a result, the highest biodiesel production yield, 63.3 (±0.6)%, was obtained by using an ethyl acetate and soybean oil mixture with a 6∶1 molar ratio, with 8% of the immobilized lipase based on the weight of oil added at 70°C and 600 rpm.     

Enhancement of ethyl propionate synthesis by poly (AAc-co-HPMA-cl-MBAm)-immobilized Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC-4713, exposed to Hg2+ and NH4+ ions

A purified alkaline thermo-tolerant bacterial lipase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC-4713 was immobilized on a poly (AAc-co-HPMA-cl-MBAm) hydrogel. The hydrogel-bound lipase achieved 93.6% esterification of ethanol and propionic acid (300 mM: 100 mM) into ethyl propionate at temperature 65 degrees C in 3 h in the presence of a molecular sieve (3 angstroms). In contrast, hydrogel-immobilized lipase pre-exposed to 5 mM of HgCl2 orNH4Cl resulted in approximately 97% conversion of reactants in 3 h into ethyl propionate under identical conditions. The salt-exposed hydrogel was relatively more efficient in repetitive esterification than the hydrogel-bound lipase not exposed to any of the cations. Moreover, bound lipase exposed Hg2+ or NH4+ ions showed altered specificity towards p-nitrophenyl esters and was more hydrolytic towards higher C-chain p-nitrophenyl esters (p-nitrophenyl laurate and p-nitrophenyl palmitate with C 12 and C 16 chain) than the immobilized lipase not exposed to any of the salts. The later showed greater specificity towards p-nitrophenyl caprylate (C 8).
