Biosynthesis of Castor Oil: Effect of Polyamines on the Acylation of Lysophosphatidic Acid at the sn-2 Position with Ricinoleic Acid

Polyamines with diamine structures of chain length longer than 3C were essential for the synthesis of phosphatidic acid (PA) from ricinoleoyl-CoA and lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) by the castor LPA acyltransferase reaction, suggesting that polyamines modulate enzyme affinity for the acyl-CoA substrate in vivo.     

Potential Use of Avocado Oil on Structured Lipids MLM-Type Production Catalysed by Commercial Immobilised Lipases

Structured Lipids are generally constituents of functional foods. Growing demands for SL are based on a fuller understanding of nutritional requirements, lipid metabolism, and improved methods to produce them. Specifically, this work was aimed to add value to avocado oil by producing dietary triacylglycerols (TAG) containing medium-chain fatty acids (M) at positions sn-1,3 and long-chain fatty acids (L) at position sn-2. These MLM-type structured lipids (SL) were produced by interesterification of caprylic acid (CA) (C8:0) and avocado oil (content of C18:1). The regiospecific sn-1,3 commercial lipases Lipozyme RM IM and TL IM were used as biocatalysts to probe the potential of avocado oil to produce SL. Reactions were performed at 30–50°C for 24 h in solvent-free media with a substrate molar ratio of 1∶2 (TAG:CA) and 4–10% w/w enzyme content. The lowest incorporation of CA (1.1% mol) resulted from Lipozyme RM IM that was incubated at 50°C. The maximum incorporation of CA into sn-1,3 positions of TAG was 29.2% mol. This result was obtained at 30°C with 10% w/w Lipozyme TL IM, which is the highest values obtained in solvent-free medium until now for structured lipids of low-calories. This strategy opens a new market to added value products based on avocado oil.     

Lipases Used for the Production of Peroxycarboxylic Acids

Stabilization of Upases by immobilization on different polymer materials has been shown. The Upases were used for triglyceride hydrolysis and the synthesis of the chemically very reactive peroxycarboxylic acids. Using in-situ produced peracids, epoxides were formed from oleic acid. Inactivation of the enzymes is probably due the substrate hydrogen peroxide.

Recent Advances in the use of Immobilized Lipases Directed Toward the Asymmetric Syntheses of Complex Molecules

Water-insoluble compounds can be substrates for enzymatic reactions when lipases are immobilized properly and suitable organic solvents are used. In this review, three type of lipase immobilization method and their application to the asymmetric syntheses of complex molecules are described. Lipases immobilized with Celite or synthetic prepolymers such as urethane prepolymer and photo-crosslinkable resin prepolymer have been applied for the kinetic resolution of many kinds of water-insoluble substrate.

Phospholipid-lipase aggregates with ether linkages are novel and have been found to function effectively as immobilized lipases in asymmetric hydrolysis or esterification reactions in water-saturated organic solvent. The phospholipid-lipase aggregates are considered to have a stacked bilayer based on X-ray diffraction analysis structure of the lipid in the crystalline phase.     

The Production of γ-Decalactone by Fermentation of Castor Oil

A microbial process for the production of optically-active γ-decalactone from the ricinoleic acid present as triglycerides in castor oil has been developed, γ-decalactone (γDL) is a component of some fruit flavours, being an important organoleptic component of peach flavours. Screening showed two red yeast microorganisms, Rhodotorula glutinis and Sporobolomyces odortts to be especially suitable for this biotransformation. The process involves lipase-mediated hydrolysis of the castor oil to give free ricinoleic acid, uptake of the acid by the cells and aerobic fermentation to achieve abbreviated β-oxidation of the ricinoleic acid (12-hydroxyoleic acid) into 4-hydroxydecanoic acid (4HDA), lactonisation of the acid into γ-DL, followed by solvent extraction and distillation. γ-DL broth concentrations of 0.5-1.2g · 1^-t were obtained after 3-5 days from fermentation media containing 10 g · 1^-1 castor oil, representing an 8.3-20.0% theoretical yield. Intermediates detected were consistent with the operation of the β-oxidation pathway. Appreciable amounts of novel metabolites identified as cis and trans isomers of a tetrahydrofuran (C₁₀) were also produced. Their formation from 4HDA appeared to be non-enzymic and was favoured by anaerobic conditions. Yields of γ-DL were inversely proportional to the concentration of castor oil present in the medium, indicating that substrate inhibition takes place. The highest yields of γ-DL were obtained when castor oil was present from the beginning of the fermentation, rather than when added once the fermentation had become established, demonstrating that the β-oxidation pathway and/or transport system require continual induction. Significant amounts of γ-DL were not produced from other fatty acids, including ricinelaidic acid, the trans isomer of ricinoleic acid. γ-DL formation was dramatically inhibited by antibiotic inhibitors of oxidative phosphorylation, indicating the importance of intact β-oxidation pathways, whereas inhibitors of protein synthesis and cell-wall synthesis had much less marked effects. Selective extraction of 4HDA from the fermentation broths, and of γDL from broth lactonised by heating at low pH, could be achieved by adsorption to Amberlite XAD-1 and XAD-7 resins respectively. Some product could be recovered from the exit gases of the fermenter by passing through propylene glycol traps. This pathway is unusual in that it is a rare example of the truncated β-oxidation of a fatty acid by microorganisms. This effect probably occurs because of partial inhibition of one or more enzymes of the β-oxidation pathway by the C₁₀ hydroxylated fatty acid intermediate(s) allowing intracellular accumulation of the 4HDA, followed by leakage out of the cell; although further metabolism of this C₁₀ intermediate does take place slowly.     

Seed characteristics and fatty acid composition of castor (<i>Ricinus communis</i> L.) varieties in Northeast China

Oil content and fatty acid composition were investigated on 12 castor varieties and strains by using the soxhlet extraction method and capillary gas chromatography. This was made to provide a reference and theoretical basis for castorbean breeding with high oil content, determine variability of seed compounds for breeding purposes, and broaden chemical material choices. Results revealed that crude fat percentage in seeds ranged from 18.91 to 35.84% with an average of 25.91%; the absolute content of ricinoleic acid varied between 171.65 g/kg and 314.03 g/kg with an average of 222.43 g/kg, and kernel crude fat percentage was between 24.28 and 46.97% with an average of 34.30%. All these study variables were highest in the 2129 strain. The percentage of ricinoleic acid in crude fat was between 83.85 to 87.62%, and the highest value was found in the zhebi4 accession. The other fatty acids appeared in small concentrations, and showed small amplitude: 1.12 to 1.61%, 1.21 to 1.61%, 3.53 to 4.80%, 5.35 to 6.38%, 0.52 to 0.79%, 0.05 to 0.08% and 0.43 to 0.55%, for palmitic, stearic, oleic, linolic, linolenic, arachidic, and arachidonic acids, respectively. One hundred seed weight was determined for each accession. One hundred seed weight ranged from 25.7 g to 34.0 g with an average of 29.9 g. There was a significant correlation between seed weight and oil content, but the correlation value was low (r=0.51). Cluster analysis by SSPS based on the content of fatty acid composition revealed that the accessions were divided into three independent clusters. These findings will clearly provide useful information for further research in breeding and utilization of castor oil.

Maximization of bioconversion of castor oil into ricinoleic acid by response surface methodology

In this study, response surface methodology was applied to optimize process variables like temperature, pH, enzyme concentration (mg/g oil), and buffer concentration (g/g oil) for hydrolysis of castor oil using Candida rugosa lipase. A 2⁴ full factorial central composite design was used to develop the quadratic model that was subsequently optimized and the optimal conditions were as follows: temperature 40 °C, pH 7.72, enzyme concentration 5.28 mg/g oil, buffer concentration 1 g/g oil and there was 65.5% conversion in 6 h. These predicted optimal conditions agreed well with the experimental results. This is the first report on the application of response surface methodology in castor oil hydrolysis using C. rugosa lipase with higher percentage conversion in 6 h.

Adsorption of peroxidase on Celite 545 directly from ammonium sulfate fractionated white radish (Raphanus sativus) proteins

This paper demonstrates the direct immobilization of peroxidase from ammonium sulfate fractionated white radish proteins on an inorganic support, Celite 545. The adsorbed peroxidase was crosslinked by using glutaraldehyde. The activity yield for white radish peroxidase was adsorbed on Celite 545 was 70% and this activity was decreased and remained 60% of the initial activity after crosslinking by glutaraldehyde. The pH and temperature-optima for both soluble and immobilized peroxidase was at pH 5.5 and 40°C. Immobilized peroxidase retained higher stability against heat and water-miscible organic solvents. In the presence of 5.0 mM mercuric chloride, immobilized white radish peroxidase retained 41% of its initial activity while the free enzyme lost 93% activity. Soluble enzyme lost 61% of its initial activity while immobilized peroxidase retained 86% of the original activity when exposed to 0.02 mM sodium azide for 1 h. The K_m values were 0.056 and 0.07 mM for free and immobilized enzyme, respectively. Immobilized white radish peroxidase exhibited lower V_max as compared to the soluble enzyme. Immobilized peroxidase preparation showed better storage stability as compared to its soluble counterpart.     

Proteolytic Extraction of Salmon Oil and PUFA Concentration by Lipases

Commercial proteases (Alcalase^®, Neutrase^®, and Flavourzyme^™) were tested for their ability to release the oil content of marine by-products (salmon heads). The amount of oil (17%) obtained after 2 hours was close to that obtained by the chemical extraction method (20%). Lipolysis of the oil was carried out with Novozym SP398 to obtain a mixture of free fatty acids and acylglycerols (24 hours 45% hydrolysis). The mixture was filtered on a hydrophobic membrane to discriminate between high melting saturated fatty acids and low melting acylglycerols. The sum of total polyunsaturated fatty acids increased from 41.6% in the crude oil to 46.5% in the permeate. The docosahexaenoic acid content increased from 9.9% to 11.6%, and the eicosapentaenoic acid changed from 3.6% to 5.6%. Data from differential scanning calorimetry DSC and from thin layer chromatography coupled with flame ionization detection (TLC-FID) differed significantly between permeate and retentate. A re-esterification of the free fatty acids in the permeate with Lipozyme IM was carried out to increase the amount of long chain acylglycerols.     

Pretreatment of lipase with soybean oil before immobilization to prevent loss of activity

Lipase was pretreated with soybean oil in order to allow fatty acids to bond to the active site before immobilization. This pretreated lipase exhibited steric hindrance around the active site such that during immobilization, covalent bonds were formed between the carrier and the lipase region far from the active site. The activity of the pretreated lipase immobilized covalently on a silica gel was 530 U/g-matrix, which is 16 times higher than that of the immobilized non-pretreated lipase. In addition, the immobilized lipase activity was maintained at levels exceeding 90% of its original activity after 10 reuses.     

The Comparative Discriminating Abilities of Lipases in Different Media and Their Application in Fatty Acid Enrichment

The generally held belief that the selectivity of lipase can be changed by changing the media from aqueous to non-aqueous was tested by monitoring the rates of hydrolysis, ester synthesis and transesterification with a range of fatty acid mono-esters. Although the absolute rates of reaction varied, hydrolysis was by far the most rapid of the three, the relative rates for the fatty acids used were similar in all three reaction types. The selectivity of the five enzymes used appeared to remain unchanged irrespective of the type of reaction, i.e. hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl esters, direct ester synthesis with butanol and fatty acid or transesterification with butyl butyrate and fatty acid, and could not be changed by changing water activity. This principle was applied to screen for suitable lipases which could be used to increase the gamma linolenic acid content of a fatty acid mixture. Enzymes could be selected by measuring the rate of hydrolysis of a range of P-nitrophenyl esters.     

Entrapment of lipase into K-carrageenan beads and its use in hydrolysis of olive oil in biphasic system

The porcine pancrease lipase was immobilized by entrapment in the beads of K-carrageenan and cured by treatment with polyethyleneimine (PEI) in the phosphate buffer. The retention of hydrolytic activity of lipase and compressive strength of the beads were examined. The activity of free and immobilized lipase was assessed by using olive oil as the substrate. The immobilized enzyme exhibited a little shift towards acidic pH for its optimal activity and retained 50% of its activity after 5 cycles. When the enzyme concentration was kept constant and substrate concentration was varied the K_m and V_max were observed to be 0.18 × 10⁻² and 0.10, and 0.10 × 10⁻² and 0.09 respectively, for free and for entrapped enzymes. When the substrate concentration was kept constant and enzyme concentration was varied, the values of K_m and V_max were observed to be 0.19 × 10⁻⁷ and 0.41, and 0.18 × 10⁻⁷ and 0.41 for free and entrapped enzymes. Though this indicates that there is no conformational change during immobilization, it also shows that the reaction velocity depends on the concentration. Immobilized enzyme showed improved thermal and storage stability. Hydrolysis of olive oil in organic–aqueous two-phase system using fixed bed reactor was carried out and conditions were optimized. The enzyme in reactor retained 30% of its initial activity after 480 min (12 cycles).

Production of a Novel Compound, 7,10,12-Trihydroxy-8(E)-Octadecenoic Acid from Ricinoleic Acid by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PR3

The production and its potential use of a novel trihydroxy unsaturated fatty acid, 7,10,12-trihydroxy-8(E)-octadecenoic acid (TOD), were investigated. TOD was formed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PR3 (NRRL B-18602) in a culture supplied with exogenous ricinoleic acid. The yield of TOD production was always higher in a rich culture medium than in minimal screening medium. Extending the conversion time from 48 to 72 h prior to lipid extraction led to a 65% reduction in yield, indicating that TOD was further metabolized by strain PR3 and that control of reaction time is important to achieving a maximum yield. The optimum culture density, reaction time, pH, temperature, and substrate concentration for the production of TOD were: 20–24 h culture growth, 48 h, 7.0, 25°C, and 1% (vol/vol), respectively. Under optimum conditions, the yield of TOD production was greater than 45%. TOD was found to be an antifungal agent most active against the fungus that causes blast disease in rice plants, the most important fungal disease affecting rice production worldwide.
