Y. Ota et al., POSITIONAL SPECIFICITY AND STEREOSELECTIVITY OF A LIPASE PREPARATION FROM OAT SEEDS ACTING ON 1,2,3-TRIHEXANOYLGLYCEROL, Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry, 61(1), 1997, pp. 166-167
Oat seed lipase was extracted with 0.01 M calcium chloride solution co
ntaining 0.5% Triton X-100 and precipitated with ammonium sulfate, The
precipitate was dissolved in phosphate buffer at pH 6.0 and the super
natant was used as the lipase preparation, The lipase was very selecti
ve in the ester positions of 1.2,3-trihexanoylglycerol, hydrolyzing sn
-3 most quickly, sn-1 moderately, and sn-2 hardly at all.
