Lipase porcine pancreas

The first asymmetric synthesis of (—)-Y-jasmolactone, a fruit fiavor constituent, vas achieved via the enantioselective lactonization (desymmetrization) of a prochiral hydroxy diester promoted by porcine pancreas lipase (PPL) (Figure 6.23) [71]. 

Another approach to the synthesis of chiral non-racemic hydroxyalkyl sulfones used enzyme-catalysed kinetic resolution of racemic substrates. In the first attempt. Porcine pancreas lipase was applied to acylate racemic (3, y and 8-hydroxyalkyl sulfones using trichloroethyl butyrate. Although both enantiomers of the products could be obtained, their enantiomeric excesses were only low to moderate. Recently, we have found that a stereoselective acetylation of racemic p-hydroxyalkyl sulfones can be successfully carried out using several lipases, among which CAL-B and lipase PS (AMANO) proved most efficient. Moreover, application of a dynamic kinetic resolution procedure, in which lipase-promoted kinetic resolution was combined with a concomitant ruthenium-catalysed racem-ization of the substrates, gave the corresponding p-acetoxyalkyl sulfones 8 in yields... 

Although quite reliable empirical rules exist for the enantioselectivity of hydrolases for secondary alcohols (see Section 4.2.1.2), such rules are not as developed for primary alcohols, partly because many hydrolases often show low enantioselectivity. With some exceptions, lipases from Pseudomonas sp. and porcine pancreas lipase (PPL) often display sufficient selectivity for practical use. The model described in Figure 4.3 has been developed for Pseudomonas cepacia lipase (reclassified as Burkholderia cepacia), and, provided that no oxygen is attached to the stereogenic center, it works well for this lipase in many cases [41]. However, as soon as primary alcohols are resolved by enzyme catalysis, independent proof of configuration for a previously unknown product is recommended. 

Other microbial lipases have also been successfully used in anhydrous ionic liquids, e.g., from Alcaligenes sp. (AsL) [54, 58], CaLA, Rhizomucor miehei lipase (RmL), and Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase (TIL) [54]. The lipase from pig pancreas (porcine pancreas lipase, PPL), the only mammalian lipase that has been subjected to ionic liquids, catalyzed transesterificationin[BMIm][NTf2]butnotin[BMIm][PF6]... 

Neri et al89 reported the desymmetrization of A-Boc-serinol 98 by the selective monoacetylation using PPL (porcine pancreas lipase) and vinyl acetate as the acylating agent in organic solvent. The mono acetylated product (R)-99 was obtained after 2 hours with 99% ee and isolated in 69% chemical yield. Traces of the diacetylated product 100 were observed. The cyclization of (R)-99 in basic medium afforded the racemic oxazolidinone 101. The latter was subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis in phosphate buffer affording (R)-... 

As early as 1984 the porcine pancreas lipase-catalysed enantioselective synthesis of (R)-glycidol was described. At pH 7.8 and ambient temperatures the reaction was allowed to proceed to 60% conversion (Scheme 6.9). This means that the enzyme was not extremely enantioselective, otherwise it would have stopped at 50% conversion. Nonetheless, after workup the (R)-glycidol was obtained in a yield of 45% with an ee of 92% [42]. This was a remarkable achievement and the process was developed into an industrial multi-ton synthesis by Andeno-DSM [34, 43]. While on the one hand a success story, it also demonstrated the shortcomings of a kinetic resolution. Most enzymes are not enantiospecific but enantioselective and thus conversions do not always stop at 50%, reactions need to be fine-tuned to get optimal ees for the desired product [28]. As mentioned above kinetic resolutions only yield 50% of the product, the other enantiomer needs to be recycled. As a result of all these considerations this reaction is a big step forward but many steps remain to be done.

Before preparing a calibration curve for lipase activity, the detectability of HDI was examined using serum sample spiked with HDI. Linear relationship was obtained (r=0.992) between the concentration of HDI (1.1-17 pmol) and CL intensity. The detection limit of HDI was 0.22 pmol (blank + 3 SD). Calibration curve for lipase activity was prepared by adding porcine pancreas lipase to serum (Table 1). Detection limit for lipase was 1.0 Uhdi (blank + 3 SD), where enzyme activity is expressed as Uhdi one Uhdi corresponds to the amount which liberates 1 pmol HDI per minute at 37 °C from HDI-laurate as a substrate.

Since the proposed method was optimized for human serum spiked with porcine pancreas lipase, it was applied to real samples to determine its estimated practicability. The seven samples from healthy volunteers were measured by the proposed method and the colorimetric method. The average and median values obtained with the proposed method were 7.76 and 7.67 Uhdi> respectively. The colorimetric method is based on the determination of liberated methylresorufm from...

Porcine Pancreas Lipase (PPL), a common lipase with low cost, could be immobilized on silica particles with good stability and recyclablity. Then the immoblized lipase (IPPL) was employed as the catalyst for polymer synthesis, such as polyesters, polycarbonates, polyphosphates, and their copolymers. Here we present a mini-review of some works in our lab within this area. 

In our study (6), porcine pancreas lipase (PPL) immobilized on silica particles (narrow distributed micron particles) was employed for ring-opening polymerization of TMC. No evidence of decarboxylation occurring during the polymerization. The results showed that silica microparticles improved immobilization efficiency much more. The most preferable polymerization temperature of TMC was 100 °C during 24h polymerization. The M of the resulting polymers was significantly increased compared with that catalyzed by...
