Abstract

A combination of two enzymes, phospholipase D (PL D) and C (PL C), was investigated for the production of two lysophospholipids, 1-lauroyl-rac- glycerophosphate (1-LGP) and 1-lauroyl-dihydroxyacetonephosphate (1-LDHAP). The high transphosphatidylation ability of phospholipase D from Streptomyces sp. allowed the formation of 1-lauroyl-phosphatidylglycerol (1-LPG) and 1- lauroyl-phosphatidyldihydroxyacetone (1-LPDHA) from phosphatidylcholine (PC) and 1-monolauroyl-rac-glycerol (1-MLG) and 1-lauroyl-dihydroxyacetone (1- MDHA), respectively. A two-phase system, diethyl ether/water, was chosen for the convenience of the recovery of the water insoluble products. A similar two-phase system was used for hydrolysis of the complex phospholipids... (More)

A combination of two enzymes, phospholipase D (PL D) and C (PL C), was investigated for the production of two lysophospholipids, 1-lauroyl-rac- glycerophosphate (1-LGP) and 1-lauroyl-dihydroxyacetonephosphate (1-LDHAP). The high transphosphatidylation ability of phospholipase D from Streptomyces sp. allowed the formation of 1-lauroyl-phosphatidylglycerol (1-LPG) and 1- lauroyl-phosphatidyldihydroxyacetone (1-LPDHA) from phosphatidylcholine (PC) and 1-monolauroyl-rac-glycerol (1-MLG) and 1-lauroyl-dihydroxyacetone (1- MDHA), respectively. A two-phase system, diethyl ether/water, was chosen for the convenience of the recovery of the water insoluble products. A similar two-phase system was used for hydrolysis of the complex phospholipids by phospholipase C form Bacillus cereus, which released both lysophospholipids. Only trace amounts of phosphatidic acid (PA) were detected showing that the enzyme is highly selective for the release of the diacylglycerol and 1- lauroyl-rac-glycerophosphate and 1-lauroyl-dihydroxyacetonephosphate.
