Enzymatic hydrolysis products

The antibody solution (1.6x10 M) and substrate solutions with various concentration from 10 M to 10 M were mixed on a BSA-coated plate. The mixed solution of antibodies and substrates was allowed to stand for 1 day at room temperature, and then transported to the ELISA plates pre-coated with BSA-hapten and BSA blocking buffer. Absorbance at 405 nm for the resulting enzymatic hydrolysis product (p-nitrophenolate) by alkalinephosphatase of the second antibody was recorded on an Immuno-Mini NJ-2300 to determine the amount of antibody bound to BSA-hapten.

The sole Nano-probe paper published in 2004 of which the author is aware was the study by Claeyssens and co-workers220 of the enzymatic hydrolysis products of Nothogenia erinacea seaweed xylan, which is a linear homopolymer with mixed / — (1 —3)// — (1 —4) linkages. The sequence of the residues was determined from a combination of nuclear overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) correlations between the anomeric protons and a proton of the residue to which it is glycosidically linked and gHMBC data, that were acquired using Nano-probe capabilities. Finally, in early 2005, Bradley et al.221 compared the ability of cryogenic, Nano- and conventional NMR probes to acquire diffusion-ordered spectroscopy (DOSY) spectra of dilute mixtures of compounds. 

Rohr 78 described the separation of penicillin V and its enzymatic hydrolysis products. Separation of eight penicillins by paper and thin-layer chromatography was reported by Hellberg while the paper... 

DEHP previously converted in its ferf.-bytyldimethylsilyl derivatives. For the analysis of the intact conjugates of DEHP metabolites by GC, Egestad et al. " prepared the methyl ester trimethylsylil ether derivatives of the major glucuronides. On the other hand, Pietrogrande et al. performed direct GC analysis of the enzymatic hydrolysis products of phthalate esters conjugates without any derivatization step.

Enzymatic hydrolysis is also used for the preparation of L-amino acids. Racemic D- and L-amino acids and their acyl-derivatives obtained chemically can be resolved enzymatically to yield their natural L-forms. Aminoacylases such as that from Pispergillus OTj e specifically hydrolyze L-enantiomers of acyl-DL-amino acids. The resulting L-amino acid can be separated readily from the unchanged acyl-D form which is racemized and subjected to further hydrolysis. Several L-amino acids, eg, methionine [63-68-3], phenylalanine [63-91-2], tryptophan [73-22-3], and valine [72-18-4] have been manufactured by this process in Japan and production costs have been reduced by 40% through the appHcation of immobilized cell technology (75). Cyclohexane chloride, which is a by-product in nylon manufacture, is chemically converted to DL-amino-S-caprolactam [105-60-2] (23) which is resolved and/or racemized to (24)... 

Liquid sucrose and Hquid invert, generally made by redissolving white sugar and inverting with invertase enzyme, are refinery products in Europe and outside the United States. In the United States they have been almost completely replaced by cheaper com symps made by enzymatic hydrolysis of starch and isomerization of glucose. 

The function of Jisper Uis fermentation appears to be primarily the breakdown of protein and polysaccharides by secreted proteases and amylases. Replacement oiPispergillis by chemical or enzymatic hydrolysis has no major impact on the organoleptic properties of the sauce. Likewise, inoculation with a pure culture of Ixictobacillus delbrueckii to carry out the acetic acid fermentation produces a normal product. The S. rouxii and Toru/opsis yeasts, however, are specifically required for proper flavor development. 

Extraction of proteia requires breaking the cell wall to release the cytoplasmic contents. This can be achieved by high speed ball or coUoid mills or by high pressure (50—60 Mpa) extmsion. Proteia is extracted by alkaline treatment followed by precipitation after enzymatic hydrolysis of nucleic acids. Although the proteia can be spun iato fibers or texturized, such products are more expensive than those derived from soybean and there is no market for them. 

Coffee bioconversions through enzymatic hydrolysis have been used to modify green coffee and improve the finished product (60). Similarly, enzymes have been reported which increase yield and improve flavor of instant coffee (61). Fermentation of green coffee extracts to produce diacetyl [431 -03-8] a coffee flavor compound, has also been demonstrated (62). 

Hydrolysis of Nitriles. The chemical hydrolysis of nitriles to acids takes place only under strong acidic or basic conditions and may be accompanied by formation of unwanted and sometimes toxic by-products. Enzymatic hydrolysis of nitriles by nitrile hydratases, nittilases, and amidases is often advantageous since amides or acids can be produced under very mild conditions and in a stereo- or regioselective manner (114,115). 

Fermentation can be combined with other operations. For example, feedback inhibition of enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose can be relieved by removal of the product glucose by fermentation as it forms. This is teni ed. simultaneou.s-saccharification-fermentation (SSF). 

A synthesis of the important biosynthetic intermediate mevalonic acid starts with the enzymatic hydrolysis of the diester A by pig liver esterase. The pro-R group is selectively hydrolyzed. Draw a three-dimensional structure of the product. 

The thiono derivatives of tetrahydro-1,3-oxazine became a subject matter of some interest since Kjaer and Jensen discovered that products of enzymatic hydrolysis of Malcolma maritima contain 6-methyl- and 6,6-dimethyl-2-thionotetrahydro-l,3-oxazine (26). The authors proved the identity of these compounds with the products of cyclization of 3-hydroxypropyl-isothiocyanate in an alkaline medium. 

Several carbohydrates such as corn and potato starch, molasses and whey can be used to produce lactic acid. Starch must fust be hydrolysed to glucose by enzymatic hydrolysis then fermentation is performed in the second stage. The choice of carbohydrate material depends upon its availability, and pretreatment is required before fermentation. We shall describe the bioprocess for the production of lactic acid from whey. 

In this case study, an enzymatic hydrolysis reaction, the racemic ibuprofen ester, i.e. (R)-and (S)-ibuprofen esters in equimolar mixture, undergoes a kinetic resolution in a biphasic enzymatic membrane reactor (EMR). In kinetic resolution, the two enantiomers react at different rates lipase originated from Candida rugosa shows a greater stereopreference towards the (S)-enantiomer. The membrane module consisted of multiple bundles of polymeric hydrophilic hollow fibre. The membrane separated the two immiscible phases, i.e. organic in the shell side and aqueous in the lumen. Racemic substrate in the organic phase reacted with immobilised enzyme on the membrane where the hydrolysis reaction took place, and the product (S)-ibuprofen acid was extracted into the aqueous phase.
