ResumoThis research describes the immobilization on glyoxyl, cyanogen bromide or octyl agarose beads of a purified lipase from Staphylococcus warneri strain EX17 (SWL), and the effect on its properties. The immobilization on glyoxyl-agarose at pH 10 and 25 °C, conditions in which the enzyme is readily inactivated, required the stabilization of the soluble enzyme. This was attained by the addition of 25% glycerol. Using this additive, immobilization on glyoxyl-agarose beads proceeded very quickly with good activity retention around 80%. This was the most stable preparation under thermal inactivation at pH 5, 7 and 9, in the presence of either cosolvents or detergents. This preparation was hyperactivated by concentrations of Triton X-100, which would produce negative effects over enzyme activity when using the other SWL preparations. Immobilized SWL preparations hydrolyzed different chiral esters, such as (±)-methyl mandelate, (±)-2-O-butyryl-2-phenylacetic acid, and (±)-2-hydroxy-4-phenyl-butyric acid ethyl ester, being its specificity depended on the immobilization protocol. The enantiospecificity was also strongly modulated by the immobilization. Thus, using HPBEt as substrate, octyl-SWL exhibited an opposite enantiospecificity to the other two biocatalysts. This preparation was the most enantioselective in the hydrolysis of (±)-2-O-butyryl-2-phenylacetic acid (E = 56.3).
