Bio-diesel as fatty acid methyl ester was derived from such oils as soybean, peanut and canola oil by lipase catalyzed continuous trans-esterification. So the activation of lipase(Novozym - 435) was kept to be up to 4:1, the limiting molar ratio of methanol to oil under one-step addition of methanol due to the miscibility of oil and methanol through the static mixer for 4hrs and the elimination of glycerol on the surface of lipase by 7wt% silica gel. Therefore the overall yield of fatty acid methyl ester from soybean oil appeared to be 98% at 50$^{\cdot}C$ of reaction temperature under two-steps addition of methanol with 2${\times}$2:1 of methanol to oil molar ratio at an interval of 5.5hrs, 7wt% of lipase, 24 number of mixer elements, 0.2ml/min of flow rate and 7wt% of silica gel.

High levels of extracellular phospholipase $A_2$ (Plase $A_2$) associated with inflammatory process in man and animal models have been extensively reported elsew here. Thus, a logical approach to the treatment of inflammatory diseases should involve the inhibitors of Plase $A_2$. To develop new Plase $A_2$ inhibitors from natural products, two hundred crude drugs were screened using group II PLA$A_2$ inhibitory activity. Among them, methanol extract of 5 medicinal plants such as, Raphani Semen, Moutan cortex radicis, Arecae semen, Caryophylli Cortex and Betulae Cortex inhibited more than 90% of PLase $A_2$ activity at a concentration 2.5${\mu}g/ml$. Then, 10 methanol extracts sample were transferred into organic solvents, PLase $A_2$ inhibitory effects were found mainly in CHCl3 and EtoAc fractions.

MT 51005 as a potent inhibitor of phospholipase C(PLC) was purified from the culture broth of a fungal strain No. 51005 isolated from soil. It was identified as a benzaldehyde d erivative, anguillosporal. by the physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic data. Anguillosporal showed the inhibitory activity against purified PLC with an $IC_{50}\;of\;13{\mu}g/ml$. And it also inhibited the formation of inositol phosphates($IP_t$) in platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF)-stimulated $NIH3T3{\gamma}1$ cells with an $IC_{50}\;of\;0.8{\mu}g/ml$.

Enzymatic resolution reactions were investigated using Candida rugosa lipase for the production of potically pure S-(+)-Ketoprofen. When the enzymatic hydroysis (and esterification) of recemic ketoprofen esters (and recemic ketoprofen with alcohol) was investigated comparatively, aqueous media was more specific for S-enantiomer than organic media. In the enzymatic hydrolysis of racemic ketoprofen ethyl ester in aqueous media, optimal temperature and pH for enantioselectivity were $37^{\circ}C$ and 4, respectively. The stereoselectivity of the enzyme was enhanced by adding dialcohols such as ethylene glycol and propylene glycol. The enantiomeric ratio obtained in the 40 %(v/v) ethylene glycol was 2-fold higher than that without the additive. By adding $CH_2Cl_2$, $CHCl_3$ and $CCl_4$ (5%,v/v), the enantioselectivity was reversed. A dramatic increase in the stereoselectivity was achieved using lipase purified by anion exchange chromatography. The type A lipase(the first eluted lipase fraction) showed an enantiomeric ratio of >100, whereas the type B lipase(the second eluted lipase fraction) exhibited enantimomer ratio of 9.0 in the hydrolysis of racemic ketoprofen ethyl ester.

A pancreatico-pleural fistula (PPF), caused by rupture of a pancreatic pseudocyststectomy or obstruction of the pancreatic duct, is a rare condition. A 48-year-old man with chronic alcoholism was admitted with a massive pleural effusion. Pleural fluid studies revealed elevated amylase and lipase. A PPF complicated by a ruptured pancreatic pseudocyststectomy was diagnosed by computerized tomography scan. Although the symptoms improved with conservative management, (chest tube drainage, NPO, total parenteral nutrition, and a pancreatic secretion inhibitor), a distal pancreatectomy, including a pseudocystectomy and thoracotomy, were performed for an increasing size of the hemorrhagic pancreatic pseudocyststectomy and a recurrent hemorrhagic pleural effusion. There were no post-operative complications and the patient was discharged on post-operative day 27.

Multiple forms of extracellular phospholipase $A_2$ have been detected in human amniotic fluid (HAF). When HAF was subjected to heparin-Sepharose column chromatography, phospholipase $A_2$ activity was detected in both heparin-non binding and binding fraction. The activity of heparin-non binding fraction was further purified by sequential uses of column chromatographies on butyl-Toy-opearl 650M and DEAE-Sephacel. DEAE-Sephacel fraction contained three different phospholipase $A_2$ activities (Peak I, II, III). The molecular weight of DEAE-Sephacel fraction phospholipase $A_2$ determined by SDS-PAGE were about 52KDa (Peak I). Peak II, III required micromolar $Ca^{2+}$ ion for its maximum activity, but Peak I enzyme showed calcium independent phospholipase $A_2$ activity and showed broad range of pH (6.0~10.0) optimum. All these enzymes were not recognized by a monoclonal antibody raised against phospholipase $A_2$ from human synovial fluid. These results suggest that HAF might contain multiple forms of extracellular phospholipase $A_2$, which may neither belong to the 14KDa group II phospholipase $A_2$ family nor cytosolic phospholipase $A_2$.

The lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene can be considered a functional candidate gene that regulates fatty acid composition. Oh etc (2013) investigated the relationship between unsaturated fatty acids and five novel SNPs, and had confirmed that three polymorphic SNPs (c.322G>A, c.329A>T and c.1591G>A) were associated with fatty acid composition. We have used generalized linear model for adjusted environmental effects and multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) method to identify gene-gene interaction effect of statistical model in general. We applied the MDR method on the identify major interaction effects of exonic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the LPL gene for economic traits in Korean cattles population.

Fish oil was hydrolyzed with Aspergillus oryzae lipase, Lipolase-100T. The hydrolysis characteristics of Lipolsae-100T were investigated. Lipolase-100T showed 1,3-positional specificity which hydrolyzed acyl chains combined on the 1 or 3 position of triglyceride into free fatty acids. Lipolase-100T represented another property that the saturated fatty acids composing the triglyceride were hydrolyzed more easily that the polyunsaturated fatty acids(PUFAs). n-3 PUFAs, such as C16:4, C20:5 and C22:6, were hardly hydrolyzed, so that the concentrations of those in the mixture of glycerides were increased according to hydrolysis time. Especially docosahexaenoic acid(DHA), C22:6 showed the highest increase in the concentration. This result explained that n-3 PUFAs were combined on 2-position of triglyceride. When the hydrolysis of fish oil with Lipolase-100T 0.4 wt% was performed for 120 hr, n-3 PUFAs wt% was increased to 50 wt% in the mixture of glycerides. This result was obtained due to the 1,3-positional specificity of Lipolase-100T and positional specificity of n-3 PUFAs.

The triglycerides of walnut oil were fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on the basis of partition number (PN). Each triglyceride was finally fractionated on the basis of aryl carbon numbers (CN) by gas-liquid chromatography (GLC). The fatty acids of triglyceride for each PN group were analyzed by GLC. Also, the fatty acid at ${\beta}-position$ of glycerol in each PN fraction separated by HPLC was determined by enzymatic hydrolysis with pancreatic lipase. The major triglyceride molecular species of walnut oil were $C_{18:2}{\cdot}C_{18:2}{\cdot}C_{18:1}$(LLO; 10.9%), $C_{18:3}{\cdot}C_{18:2}{\cdot}C_{18:2}$(LnLL; 17.6%) and $C_{18:2}{\cdot}C_{18:2}{\cdot}C_{18:2}$(LLL; 37.3%). The triglyceride molecular species occupied by unsaturated fatty acid at ${\beta}-position$ were more than 90%.
