Insights on the role of blocking agent on the properties of the lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus immobilized on heterofunctional support for hydroesterification reactions

Here, we report a study of the effect of the blocking agent on the properties of the lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL) immobilized on a heterofunctional support (Purolite C18-ethylnediamina (EDA)- vinyl sulfone (VS)-TLL-blocking agent) in different reactions. The performance of the biocataly...

Sumario:Here, we report a study of the effect of the blocking agent on the properties of the lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL) immobilized on a heterofunctional support (Purolite C18-ethylnediamina (EDA)- vinyl sulfone (VS)-TLL-blocking agent) in different reactions. The performance of the biocatalysts was compared to those immobilized on standard hydrophobic support (Purolite C18-TLL) and the commercial one (TLL-IM). The nature of the blocking agent (Cys, Gly and Asp) altered the enzyme features. TLL-IM always gave a comparatively worse performance, with its specificity for the oil being very different to the Purolite biocatalysts. Under optimized conditions, Purolite C18-TLL yielded 97 % of hydrolysis conversion after 4 h using a water/waste cooking soybean oil (WCSO) mass ratio of 4.3, biocatalyst load of 6.5 wt% and a temperature of 44.2 °C (without buffer or emulsification agent). In esterification reactions of the purified free fatty acids (FFAs) obtained from WCSO, the best TLL biocatalysts depended on the utilized alcohol: linear amyl alcohol was preferred by Purolite C18-TLL and Purolite C18-EDA-VS-TLL-Gly, while higher activity was achieved utilizing isoamyl alcohol as nucleophile by Purolite C18-EDA-VS-TLL-Cys, Purolite C18-EDA-VS-TLL-Asp and IM-TLL as catalysts. All the results indicate the influence of the blocking step on the final biocatalyst features.
