Biocatalytic synthesis of vitamin A palmitate using immobilized lipase produced by recombinant Pichia pastoris.

ABSTRACT: In this work, the Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB), produced by recombinant Pichia pastoris, was immobilized and used to synthesize vitamin A palmitate by transesterification of vitamin A acetate and palmitic acid in organic solvent. The reaction conditions including the type of solvent, temperature, rotation speed, particle size, and molar ratio between the two substrates were investigated. It turned out that the macroporous resin HPD826 serving as a carrier showed the highest activity (ca. 9200 U g-1) among all the screened carriers. It was found that the transesterification kinetic of the immobilized CALB followed the ping pong Bi-Bi mechanism and the reaction product acetic acid inhibited the enzymatic reaction with an inhibition factor of 2.823 mmol L-1. The conversion ability of the immobilized CALB was 54.3% after 15 cycles. In conclusion, the present work provides a green route for vitamin A palmitate production using immobilized CALB to catalyze the transesterification of vitamin A acetate and palmitic acid.

Project description:BackgroundLipase-catalyzed biotransformation of acylglycerides or fatty acids into biodiesel via immobilized enzymes or whole cell catalysts has been considered as one of the most promising methods to produce renewable and environmentally friendly alternative liquid fuels, thus being extensively studied so far. In all previously pursued approaches, however, lipase enzymes are prepared in an independent process separated from enzymatic biodiesel production, which would unavoidably increase the cost and energy consumption during industrial manufacture of this cost-sensitive energy product. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop novel cost-effective biocatalysts and biocatalytic processes with genuine industrial feasibility.ResultInspired by the consolidated bioprocessing of lignocellulose to generate bioethanol, an integrated process with coupled lipase production and in situ biodiesel synthesis in a recombinant P. pastoris yeast was developed in this study. The novel and efficient dual biocatalytic system based on Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase took advantage of both cell free enzymes and whole cell catalysts. The extracellular and intracellular lipases of growing yeast cells were simultaneously utilized to produce biodiesel from waste cooking oils in situ and in one pot. This integrated system effectively achieved 58% and 72% biodiesel yield via concurrent esterified-transesterified methanolysis and stepwise hydrolysis-esterification at 3:1 molar ratio between methanol and waste cooking oils, respectively. Further increasing the molar ratio of methanol to waste cooking oils to 6:1 led to an 87% biodiesel yield using the stepwise strategy. Both water tolerance and methanol tolerance of this novel system were found to be significantly improved compared to previous non-integrated biodiesel production processes using separately prepared immobilized enzymes or whole cell catalysts.ConclusionWe have proposed a new concept of integrated biodiesel production. This integrated system couples lipase production to lipase-catalyzed biodiesel synthesis in one pot. The proof-of-concept was established through construction of a recombinant P. pastoris yeast strain that was able to grow, overexpress T. lanuginosus lipase, and efficiently catalyze biodiesel production from fed waste cooking oils and methanol simultaneously. This simplified single-step process represents a significant advance toward achieving economical production of biodiesel at industrial scale via a 'green' biocatalytic route.
