Soluble enzyme cross-linking <i>via</i> multi-component reactions: a new generation of cross-linked enzymes

Abstract

By using a isocyanide-based multi-component reaction for the immobilization of the soluble forms of Rhizomucor miehei lipase (RML) and Thermomyces lanuginosa lipase (TLL), the first step of enzyme aggregation or crystallization in the traditional methods of cross-linking was bypassed. High immobilization yields and specific activities were achieved for both lipases.
