Hydrolase Engineering by Circular Permutation Stefan Lutz, Emory University, Department of Chemistry, Atlanta, GA 30322 Enzyme engineering of lipase B from Candida antarctica (WT CALB) by circular permutation (CP) results in biocatalysts with rate enhancements of up to 100-fold while preserving the high parental enantioselectivity. A recent studies with one variant (cp283∆7) demonstrates the enzymes superior performance as inter and transesterification catalysts for triglycerides and oils in biodiesel production. canola oil / 1-butanol
