Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis recombinant cutinase from Fusarium solani pisi is used as a catalyst in enzymatic transesterification between a mixture of triglyceride oils and methanol for biodiesel production in a bis(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate (AOT)/isooctane reversed micellar system, kinetics, overview Fusarium vanettenii

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
L153Q site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows transesterification activity similar to the wild-type enzyme Fusarium vanettenii
additional information cutinase is microencapsulated in reversed micelles of bis(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate in isooctane for the production of alkyl esters, known as biodiesel, evaluation of the system stability using wild-type enzyme and three mutants, L153Q, T179C and S54D, method evaluation, overview. Loss of 45% of wild-type cutinase activity when incubated in the micellar system for 3 h, and an additional loss of 90% of the activity is observed in the presence of methanol after 10 min of incubation Fusarium vanettenii
S54D site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows reduced transesterification activity compared to the wild-type enzyme Fusarium vanettenii
T179C site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows transesterification activity similar to the wild-type enzyme, T179C displays high stability in the presence of methanol with an activity loss of only 16% as compared to 90% loss of wild-type activity, the mutant is also more stable microencapsulated in reversed micelles of bis(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate in isooctane Fusarium vanettenii
