Lipases: Structure, Mechanism and Genetic Engineering

Rate this book
Lipases are of high practical relevance. They exhibit activity only at the water-lipid interphase and can thus be utilized for various industrial applications such as detergents and chiral synthesis.

Up to now, however, progress in industrial use has been hampered by the lack of fundamental knowledge about lipase structure and function.

With the information this GBF monograph provides, scientists will finally be able to develop and exploit lipases in their own work. The 70 articles in the book, written by scientists from 16 nations (notably from Europe, USA and Japan), are grouped into four

* 3-Dimensional Structure
* Mechanism of Action
* Genetic Engineering
* General Characterization and Purification

This unique and invaluable documentation is the result of a CEC-GBF Workshop (Braunschweig, Germany, September 1990) held within the framework of the BRIDGE EEC project.
