Enzyme Preparations
Enzymes are insoluble in organic solvents
Enzyme powders
Suspension of enzymes in bulk solvent or on solid supports
Covalent modifications, e.g. PEG; surfactants
5353
pH Memory Affect
Rate of transesterification with pH adjusted subtilisin 75x that of bottled enzyme
Enzymatic activity in organic solvent depends upon pH of the last aqueous solution enzyme was exposed to.
5454
Structural Integrity of Enzymes
Explanation ? Enzymes possess reduced mobility in pure organic media
Evidence: Structurally rigid e.g. decrease in motion of lipase Tyr 123
acetonitrile than in water
Conclusion: Denaturation is thermodynamically favourable, yet
conformational flexibility is lacking
