Research Abstract |
Stable and high stereo-selective lipase has attracted attention from the viewpoint of industrial usage. As compared with the case where it was olive growing, the addition of stearyl alcohol resulted in enhanced several tens folds of thermo-stable and high stereo-selective lipase activity. Not only lipase but also surface active protein (EliA) was strongly induced in a large amount and secreted. From our experimental results, We can propose a model of lipase super-production system as follows: uptake of a small amount of lipase super-inducer, induction of EliA and secretion, emulsification of stearyl alcohol by EliA, uptake of a large amount of lipase super-inducer, and strong induction of lipase and secretion. It has become possible to obtain a large amount of high stereo-selective lipase by application of the mechanism.
