Abstract excerpt
Lipases/acyltransferases, such as CpLIP2 from Candida parapsilosis and CduLAc from Candida dubliniensis, catalyze acyl transfer preferentially over hydrolysis if a suitable nucleophile is present, even in a medium with a high thermodynamic activity of water (aW ). These enzymes are related to CAL-A from Moesziomyces antarcticus, which, in comparison, displays a lower acyl transfer ability. The 3D structures of...
