RESUMEN
Amano lipase AK from P. fluorescens was immobilized on different types of chitosan-containing supports. Chitosan lower molecular weight (2.5%), chitosan lower molecular weight/sodium alginate (2.5%/2.5%) and chitosan lower molecular weight/carrageenan (2.5%/2.5%) allowed the highest values of immobilization yields (IY) of 81, 81 and 83%, respectively. Best activity results were achieved using chitosan average molecular weight (5%) and chitosan lower molecular weight/sodium alginate (2.5%/2.5%) as support, with values of 1.40 and 1.30 UpNPB/ggel and with recovery activities of 45.75 and 35.6%, respectively. These derivatives were evaluated in the kinetic resolution of rac-indanol to obtain a key intermediate in the synthesis of a drug used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. The most efficient derivatives in the kinetic resolution were lipase immobilized on chitosan average molecular weight (5.0%) and chitosan low molecular weight/sodium alginate, the latter leading to obtaining both (S)-indanol and (R)-indanyl acetate with > 99% ee and 50% conversion.

In this study, the modulation of enzymatic biocatalysts were developed by the use of lipase B from Candida antarctica covalently immobilized on an eco-friendly support, cashew apple bagasse, activated with 10% glycidol-ethylenediamine-glutaraldehyde (GEG) under different immobilization strategies (5 mM or 100 mM ionic strength and in absence or presence of 0.5% (v/v) Triton X-100). The biocatalysts were characterized for thermal and organic solvents stabilities and compared with the soluble enzyme. The biocatalysts were then applied to the hydrolysis of the rac-indanyl acetate (2:1 ratio enzyme/substrate) at pH 7.0 and 30 °C for 24 h. For all the strategies evaluated, GEG promoted kinetic resolution of rac-indanyl acetate with maximum conversion (50%) and led to (R)-indanol with excellent enantiomeric excess (97%), maintaining the maximum conversion for five consecutive cycles of hydrolysis. Therefore, the use of cashew apple bagasse has proved to be a promising eco-friendly support for enzyme immobilization, since it resulted in stable biocatalysts for enzymatic kinetic resolution.

Non-lypolitic esterases are carboxylester hydrolases with preference for the hydrolysis of water-soluble esters bearing short-chain acyl residues. The potential of esterases as enantioselective biocatalysts has enlarged in the last few years due to the progresses achieved in different areas, such as screening methodologies, overproduction of recombinant esterases, structural information useful for understanding the rational behind enantioselectivity, and efficient methods in protein engineering. Contributions of these complementary know-hows to the development of new robust enantioselective esterases are critically discussed in this review.
