| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Lipase from Candida sp or Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) is enantiospecific for secondary alcohols. It has wide industrial applications. Lipases, in general, catalyze triacylglycerol synthesis and breakdown. Lipase B from Candida antarctica (CALB) undergoes interfacial activation and is a popular lipase. |
| General description: | Lipase from Candida sp or Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB), is a serine hydrolase, which belongs to the α/β hydrolase fold family. It consists of Ser, His, and Asp/Glu catalytic triad and has secondary alcohol binding pocket. Structurally, CALB exists in open and closed conformations and the active site is covered by a small lid. A total of 10 lipases are associated with Candida albicans. |
