Download or read book Lipolytic Enzymes written by Hans Brockerhoff and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lipolytic Enzymes focuses on the biochemistry of lipolytic enzymes, particularly, pancreatic lipase and phospholipase 2 as well as their structure and catalytic mechanism. It explores the kinetics of lipolysis, the digestive lipases of nonmammalian animals, the assay and purification of cholesterol esterases and phospholipases, the method phospholipases use in hydrolyzing phospholipids, and the adaptive mechanism of lipolytic enzymes at the lipid-water interface. Organized into eight chapters, this book begins with an overview of the importance of lipolytic enzymes, including their medical, therapeutic, food, and other industrial applications. It then proceeds with a discussion on the classification of lipolytic enzymes according to the type of bond they hydrolyze and the substrates on which they act. The next chapters look at the substrates and supersubstrates of lipolytic enzymes, along with their maximal velocity and the Michaelis constant. Moreover, the book talks about the detection and assay of lipases, the molecular properties of pancreatic cholesterol esterases, the stimulating effect of bile salts on cholesterol esterases, the hydrolytic cleavage of carboxyl esterases, and the occurrence and distribution of phosphohydrolases. A chapter discussing the two groups of lipolytic enzymes (the first containing enzymes of broad substrate specificity and not requiring cofactors; the second containing metalloenzymes with very narrow substrate requirements) concludes this book. This book is a valuable resource for chemists, biochemists, and those working in the field of nutritional sciences.

Download or read book Molecular Dynamics of Biomembranes written by Jos A.F.op den Kamp and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protein insertion and translocation, intracellular traffic and sorting of membranes and their components, and lipid-protein interactions were the main topics of the Advanced Study Institute on "Molecular Dynamics of Membranes", which was held in June 1995 in Cargese, Corsica, France. The course, co-sponsored by NATO and FEBS, was the fifth in a series that started in 1987 and takes place every two years in the Institut d'Etudes Scientifiques in Cargese. This Institute, ideally situated and fully equiped for this type of scientific meeting has greatly contributed to the great success of the courses. Of course, also the outstanding contributions of a large number of well known scientists and the enthousiastic participation of excellent graduate students and postdocs has given the "Cargese Lectures on Biomembranes" a firm reputation in the scientific community. The present proceedings is more than just a reflection on the information presented in the Course. First of all it contains a number of extensive reviews of specific areas of interest. Noteworthy are the articles dealing with: • the general mechanisms of protein transport, the roles of invariant chain in antigen presentation, protein import and export in E. coli, protein folding and the role of chaperones, chloroplast and mitochondrial protein import, • membrane traffic in general and during mitosis, and with respect to membrane lipids: lipid domain formation, lipases: an extensive review about structure and properties, phospholipase A2 and bioactive lipids, phospholipid transfer proteins, • phospholipid localization and mobility and, finally, new strategies for protein reconstitution.
Download or read book Engineering Of with Lipases written by F.X. Malcata and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1996-03-31 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The innovative uses of lipases in a wide variety of organic syntheses and the modification of existing fats and oils have increased exponentially over the last five years, due to the increasing availability of lipases from (genetically engineered) microbial sources, coupled with their special capacity to act as catalysts at hydrophilic/hydrophobic interfaces. As a result of the structural characterisation performed during the same period, applications of these lipases can now be developed in a much more rational way. Engineering of/with Lipases presents two major topics: the design and production of lipases with desired, preselected properties, and the use of lipases for desired applications. Audience: Doctoral and post-doctoral crystallographers, biochemists, geneticists and enzyme kineticists. Food, chemical and biochemical engineers. The former will learn about the practical aims and constraints associated with industrial applications of lipases, enabling them to design lipases for specific purposes. The latter will learn how to take advantage of the structural knowledge of lipases and their metabolic genesis to better design media, processes and products in terms of biochemical and technical feasibility.
