Substratselektivität von Lipasen bei der Veresterung und Umesterung cis-trans-isomerer Fettsäuren und Fettsäureester
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe aim of this doctoral thesis was the systematic determination of substrate selectivity of lipases towards unsaturated fatty acids and fatty acid esters with respect to position and configuration of C=C-double bonds. First, the substrate selectivity of 39 lipases from microorganisms, plants and animal tissue has been examined in the esterification of cis- and trans-9-octadecenoic acid (oleic and elaidic acid respectively) with n-butanol in n-hexane. While most of the lipases were unspecific towards the isomeric 9-octadecenoic acids, lipases from Candida cylindracea and Mucor miehei had a strong preference for the cis-9-isomer and catalysed the esterification of oleic acid 3-4 times faster than the reaction of elaidic acid. Only Candida antarctica lipase A favoured the trans-9-isomer as substrate and esterified elaidic acid 15 times faster than oleic acid. Examining the substrate selectivity in the esterification of linoleic (all-cis-9,12-octadecadienoic) acid, linolenic (all-cis-9,12,15-octadecatrienoic) acid and their all-trans-isomers with n-butanol in n-hexane as well as in the transesterification of cis/trans-isomeric 9,12-octadecadienoic acid methyl esters with n-butanol in n-hexane, once again lipases from Candida antarctica and Mucor miehei preferred fatty acids and fatty acid esters with a (first) cis double bond in delta-9-position, while the lipase A from Candida antarctica accepted trans-9-unsaturated substrates with high selectivity. Furthermore, lipases from Candida cylindracea and Mucor miehei as well as the lipase A from Candida antarctica has been used as biocatalysts in the esterification of the commercially available conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers cis-9,trans-11-, cis-9,cis-11-, trans-9,trans-11- and trans-10,cis-12-octadecadienoic acid with n-butanol in n-hexane. As expexted, the cis-9-selective lipases from Candida cylindracea and Mucor miehei had a preference for the cis-9,trans-11-octadecadienoic acid, while the Candida antarctica lipase A favoured the trans-9, trans-11-isomer as substrate. Moreover, lipase from Candida cylindracea and lipase A from Candida antarctica were able to discriminate between cis-9,trans-11- and trans-10,cis-12-octadecadienoic acid. Therefore, these lipases has been used for the enzymatic fractionation of individual CLA-isomers, especially for the enrichment of the bioactive cis-9,trans-11-linoleic acid. Last but not least the substrate selecitvity of several microbial lipases towards cis/trans-isomeric octadecenoic acids and acid esters with C=C-double bond in the delta-6-, delta-7-, delta-8-, delta-10-, delta-11-, delta-12- and delta-13-position has been examined in the esterification and transesterification with n-butanol in n-hexane. Depending on the position of the C=C-double bond, lipases of Candida cylindracea and Mucor miehei preferred either the trans-isomer (even position: delta-6, delta-8, delta-10) or the cis-isomer (odd position: delta-7, delta-9, delta-11), while Candida antarctica lipase A always accepted the trans-isomer as substrate.
