Strain Engineering for Lipase

CD Biosynsis can help our customers overcome challenges in lipase production by leveraging emerging technologies in synthetic biology to meet the growing demand for lipases in scientific research, industrial production, medical diagnostics, and so on. We are committed to breaking the limitations of lipase in large-scale production and traditional industrial applications and developing more time- and cost-effective methods of lipase production to advance the use of lipase in a wide range of applications.

Advantages of Synthetic Biology-Driven Lipase Production

Lipases also known as triacylglycerol acylhydrolases EC. 3.1.1.3, are hydrolases capable of catalyzing the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols (TAGs) into glycerol and fatty acids (FAs) and can be produced by bacteria, fungi, plants and mammals. However, there are many limitations in the current production process of lipase and its industrial application, such as low yield, poor thermal stability and activity. On the other hand, improvement of lipases by conventional cloning, expression and identification methods is considered to be expensive and inefficient. Recent advances in synthetic biology can provide a framework for developing methods that can accurately predict and optimize different factors of enzyme activity and can help us to efficiently develop quality lipase producing microorganisms. Recent advances in synthetic biology can provide a framework for the development of methods that can accurately predict and optimize different factors of lipase activity, thus helping us to efficiently develop quality lipase producing microorganisms.
