Lipases are used frequently as chiral catalysts in the synthesis of various fine chemicals and
intermediates. The increasing need of compounds with high stereochemical purity requires …

We investigated the surface behavior of gum Arabic (GA) as well as its effects on the lipolytic
activity of human pancreatic lipase (HPL) and Humicola lanuginosa lipase (HLL), using …

Thermal stability of wild type Humicola lanuginosa lipase (wt HLL) and its two mutants,
W89L and the single Trp mutant W89m (W117F, W221H, and W260H), were compared …

The adsorption properties, amount and specific activity of lipase D from Rhizopus delemar
were investigated by employing a gold substrate modified with seven kinds of thiol …

Enantioselectivity of enzyme catalysis is often rationalized via active site models. These
models are constructed on the basis of comparing the enantiomeric excess of product …

In this thesis, normal mode analysis, electrostatic calculations, and sequence-based
bioinformatics methods were applied to investigate protein sequence-structure-function …

The study described in this thesis focused on the investigation of the ability of hydrolytic
enzymes such as lipase from Candida antarctica and Rhizomucor miehei and cutinase from …
