13. Synthesis of structured triacylglycerols enriched in n-3 fatty acids by immobilized microbial lipase
Abstract The search for new biocatalysts has aroused great interest due to the variety of micro-organisms and their role as enzyme producers. Native lipases from Aspergillus niger and Rhizopus javanicus were used to enrich the n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids content in the triacylglycerols of soybean oil by acidolysis with free fatty acids from sa

14. "Photo" Chemistry Without Light?
In the early seventies, Giuseppe Cilento (São Paulo University), Emil White (Johns Hopkins University) and Angelo Lamola (AT&T Bell Laboratories) postulated that typical photochemical reactions could occur in dark parts of living organisms if coupled to enzymatic sources of electronically excited products. Their paradoxical hypothesis of "photochemistry wit

15. A comparison between the recombinant expression and chemical synthesis of a short cysteine-rich insecticidal spider peptide
Abstract Background: The choice between heterologous expression versus chemical synthesis for synthesizing short cysteine-rich insecticidal peptides from arthropods may impact the obtainment of yields and well-folded bioactive molecules for scientific research. Therefore, two recombinant expression systems were compared to

16. PERFORMANCE OF LOOFA-IMMOBILIZED Rhizopus oryzae IN THE ENZYMATIC PRODUCTION OF BIODIESEL WITH USE OF OLEIC ACID IN n-HEXANE MEDIUM
AbstractThe performance of loofa-immobilized Rhizopus oryzae (as a whole-cell biocatalyst) in the synthesis of methyl oleate was evaluated using oleic acid as a model substrate. The activities of the cell-bound lipase in terms of the esterification and hydrolysis reactions were found to be higher for the immobilized cells as compared with those of the free c

17. ENZYMATIC RESOLUTION OF ANTIDEPRESSANT DRUG PRECURSORS IN AN UNDERGRADUATE LABORATORY
The use of biocatalysts in synthetic chemistry is a conventional methodology for preparing enantiomerically enriched compounds. Despite this fact, the number of experiments in chemical teaching laboratories that demonstrate the potential of enzymes in synthetic organic chemistry is limited. We describe a laboratory experiment in which students synthesized a

18. Stability of immobilized Rhizomucor miehei lipase for the synthesis of pentyl octanoate in a continuous packed bed bioreactor
The enzymatic synthesis of organic compounds in continuous bioreactors is an efficient way to obtain industrially important chemicals. However, few works have focused on the study of the operational conditions and the bioprocess performance. In this work, the aliphatic ester pentyl octanoate was obtained by direct esterification using a continuous packed bed

19. Conversion of by-products from the vegetable oil industry into biodiesel and its use in internal combustion engines: a review
Biodiesel produced from by-products and waste materials can be an economical way of reducing traditional oil consumption and environmental problems. The by-products from the vegetable oil refining industry such as soapstock, acid oil and fatty acid distillates are suitable for producing biodiesel. The present work is a survey related to the use of these by-p

20. Enantioselective synthesis of both (-)-(R)-and (+)-(S)-angustureine controlled by enzymatic resolution
Uma nova síntese dos enantiômeros (-)-(R)- e (+)-(S)-angustureina, assim como do racemato (±)-angustureina, a partir de um β-amino éster racêmico controlado por resolução cinética enzimática, é descrita. Esta estratégia permitiu, incorporar tanto o esqueleto básico como controlar o único estereocentro no carbono 2 de ambos enantiômeros. A sequ

21. Isolation of a yeast strain able to produce a polygalacturonase with maceration activity of cassava roots
The objective of the present study was the isolation of a yeast strain, from citrus fruit peels, able to produce a polygalacturonase by submerged fermentation with maceration activity of raw cassava roots. Among 160 yeast strains isolated from citrus peels, one strain exhibited the strongest pectinolytic activity. This yeast was identified as Wickerhamomyces

22. Solid-liquid equilibrium data of amoxicillin and hydroxyphenylglycine in aqueous media
The enzymatic synthesis of amoxicillin is catalyzed by Penicillin G Acylase (PGA). As byproducts, hydroxyphenylglycine and alcohol are also formed from hydrolytic reactions and antibiotic synthesis, respectively. The design of this process should be directed to promote the synthesis reaction. At the same time, it is necessary to reduce the hydrolytic reactio

23. Bioethanol production from rice straw residues
A rice straw -cellulose utilizing mold was isolated from rotted rice straw residues. The efficient rice straw degrading microorganism was identified as Trichoderma reesei. The results showed that different carbon sources in liquid culture such as rice straw, carboxymethyl cellulose, filter paper, sugar cane bagasse, cotton stalk and banana stalk induced T. r

24. Imobilização da tanase de Paecilomyces variotii e ação em reações de hidrólise e síntese / Immobilization of tannase from Pecilomyces variotii and reactions of hydrolysis and synthesis
Tannin acyl hydrolase (TAH) known as tannase (EC 3.1.1.20) is an enzyme that hydrolyzes esters of hydrolysable tannins producing gallic acid and glucose as the reaction medium is polar. However, the literature indicates their ability to produce also gallic acid esters in organic media. Our research group has isolated a fungus, Paecilomyces variotii, tannase
