Lipases
• Hydrolysis of ester bonds in tri-, di-, and monoacylglycerols to glycerol and free fatty acids.
• Organic media: esterification, transesterification and interesterification.
• Industrial applications: production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, structured lipids, biolubricants, sugar esters, resolution of racemates, biopolymers, biodiesel, cosmetics and flavors.
A.A. Mendes, P.C. Oliveira, H.F. de Castro. J. Mol. Catal. B: Enzym. 78 (2012) 119–134.
Lipases: Interfacial activation
R. Fernández-Lafuente. J. Mol. Catal. B: Enzym. 62 (2010) 197–212.
Lipase Sources
• Microorganisms: bacteria and fungi (filamentous and yeasts).
• Tissue animals: porcine pancreas.
• Several plants: seed oils, cereals and latex.
• The most plant lipases used in biotransformation reactions – seed oils and latex.

Plant lipases – Advantages
• They are available from natural sources (easy accessibility).
• Low cost and high substrate specificity.
• No requirement of immobilization step (naturally “immobilized” onto solid materials from seeds).
• Interesting alternative for commercial exploitation as industrial enzymes.
P. Villeneuve. Eur. J. Lipid Sci. Technol. 105 (2003) 308–317.
Plant Lipases
• Seed oils: castor bean (Ricinus communis), physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.), Rape (Brassica napus), sunflower (Helianthus annuus) soybean (Glycine max), etc.
• Cereals: rice bran (Oryza sativa), wheat germ (Triticum aestivum L.), barley (Hordeum vulgare), corn (Zea mays), etc.
• Latex: papaya (Carica papaya) and babaco (Vasconcellea × heilbornii; syn. Carica pentagona).
