1-Palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-oleoyl glycerol (POO) and 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-palmitoyl glycerol (POP) were enriched from palm stearin using an acetone fractionation process. Response surface methodology was employed to optimize the purity of POO ($Y_1$, %) and POP ($Y_2$, %) along with POO+POP content ($Y_3$, g) based on independent variables such as fractionation temperature ($X_1$, 25, 30, and $35^{\circ}C$) and the ratio of palm stearin to acetone ($X_2$, 1:3, 1:6 and 1:9, w/v). Fractionation conditions were optimized to maximize $Y_1$, $Y_2$, and $Y_3$, in which fractionation temperature was $29.3^{\circ}C$ with a 1:5.7 acetone ratio. With such parameters, 60.9% of POP and 23.8% of POO purity were expected with a 75% yield (3.0 g) of POO and POP.

The enzymatic interesterification was performed to produce structured lipids (SLs) with palm mid fraction (PMF) and stearic ethyl ester (STEE) for 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 hr at $80^{\circ}C$. The reaction was catalyzed by Lipozyme TLIM (immobilized lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus, amount of 20% by weight of total substrates) in a shaking water bath set at 180 rpm. The optimum condition for synthesis of asymmetric SLs were: substrate molar ratio 1:0.5 (PMF:STEE, by weight), reaction time 6 hr, enzyme 20% (wt%, water activity=0.085) of total substrate and reaction temperature $80^{\circ}C$. After reaction at optimized condition, triacylglycerols (symmetrical and asymmetrical TAGs) from reactants were isolated. POP/PPO (1,3-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl glycerol or 1,2-palmitoyl-3-oleoyl glycerol), POS/PSO (palmitoyl-oleoyl-stearoyl glycerol or palmitoyl-stearoyl-oleoyl glycerol), SOS/SSO (1,3-stearoyl-2-oleoyl glycerol or 1,2-stearoyl-3-oleoyl glycerol) were obtained by solvent fractionation. Finally, refined SLs contained stearic acid of 16.91%. Solid fat index and thermogram of the refined SLs were obtained using differential scanning calorimetry. The degree of asymmetric triacylglycerol in the refined SLs was analyzed by Ag-HPLC equipped with evaporated light scattering detector (ELSD). The refined SLs consisted of symmetric TAG of 41.15 area% and asymmetric TAG of 58.85 area%.

The fat content, fatty acid composition, trans fatty acid content and triacylglycerol (TAG) composition of 22 chocolates (domestics 8, foreigns 14) collected from the Korea distribution markets were investigated. The crude fat was extracted by acid hydrolysis method and analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and reversed-phase HPLC for fatty acid and TAG compositions, respectively. The crude fat content of all chocolates varied between 30.11% and 49.59%. The major fatty acids in most of the chocolates were palmitic acid (19.36~31.15 wt%), stearic acid (5.11~36.32 wt%) and oleic acid (18.77~36.68 wt%). Whereas lauric acid (approximately 35.43 wt%) was detected in chocolate fat of sample No. 18. High oleic acid content was observed for the sn-2 position fatty acid with a range from 64.91% to 86.93%. Trans fatty acid contents in domestic chocolates (sample No. 1~8) and foreign chocolates (sample No. 9~22) were 0.03~0.59 wt% (0.01~0.19 g/100g chocolate) and 0.05~6.32 wt% (0.02~1.99 g/100g chocolate), respectively. In TAG composition, TAGs such as POP/PPO(1,3(2)-palmitoyl-2(3)-oleoyl glycerol, PN=48), POS/PSO(palmitoyl-oleoyl-stearoyl glycerol or palmitoyl-stearoyl-oleoyl glycerol, PN=50), SOS/SSO(1,3(2)-stearoyl-2(3)-oleoyl glycerol, PN=50) were mainly detected in most of the chocolates. The peaks of TAG with low PN (ex, 32-34, 36-38, and 40-42) were detected in No. 18 chocolate fat because of containing short chain fatty acid such as lauric acid.

Enzymatic interesterification was conducted with the palm mid fraction (PMF) and stearic ethyl ester for 1, 5, and 9 hr at 46$^{\circ}C$. The reaction was catalyzed by Lipozyme TLIM (2, 3, and 4% by weight of total substrates) in a shaking water bath at 180 rpm. As the reaction continued, oleic acid (C18:1) content at the sn-2 position decreased, whereas saturated fatty acid (C16:0 and C18:0) content increased. In the high performance chromatography analysis, 1,3-dipalmitoyl-2-oleoyl glycerol content decreased, whereas 1(3)-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3(1)-stearoyl glycerol (POS) content increased up to the reaction equilibrium. The rate of acyl migration increased with increasing molar ratio and enzyme load as well as reaction time. The optimal reaction conditions for maximizing POS content (53.5 area%) and minimizing acyl migration (23.1 area%) were obtained with a PMF : stearic ethyl ester=1:2 (molar ratio), Lipozyme TLIM 3 wt%, and a reaction time of 5 hr.

1(3)-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3(1)-stearoyl-(POS)-glycerol-enriched reaction products were synthesized from camellia oil, palmitic ethyl ester, and stearic ethyl ester via lipase-catalyzed interesterification. Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to optimize the production of the POS-enriched reaction product (Y1, %) and the stearicand palmitic-acid contents at the sn-2 position due to acyl migration (Y2, %). The reaction factors were the enzyme amount (X1, 2-6%), reaction time (X2, 60-360 min), and substrate molar ratio of camellia oil to palmitic ethyl ester and stearic ethyl ester (X3, 1-3 mol). The predictive models for Y1 and Y2 were adequate and reproducible as no lack of fit was signified (0.128 and 0.237) and as there were satisfactory levels of R2 (0.968 and 0.990, respectively). The optimal conditions for the reaction product for maximizing Y1 while minimizing Y2 were predicted at the reaction combination of 5.86% enzyme amount, 60 min reaction time, and 1:3 substrate molar ratio (3 moles of palmitic ethyl ester and 3 moles of stearic ethyl ester). Actual reaction was performed under the same conditions as above, and the resulting product contained 20.19% TAG-P/O/S and 12.71% saturated fatty acids at the sn-2 position.

Production of cocoa butter equivalent fat (CBE) from palm oil and stearic acid by reverse micelle lipase reaction system was studied. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of triglycerides were performed by HPLC. The reaction conditions for maximum conversion from triolein and stearic acid to 1-stearoyl-2,3-dioleoyl glycerol(SOO) and 1,3-distearoyl-2-oleoyl glycerol(SOS) were as follows: a molar ratio of water/Aerosol OT, 10; triolein, 30 mM; stearic acid, 90 mM; pH, 7.5; and temperature, $50^{\circ}C$. By lipase in reverse micellar system containing palm oil and stearic acid, 1,3-dipalmitoyl-2-oleoyl glycerol(POP), 1-palmitoyl-2,3-dioleoyl glycerol(POO) and SOO decreased, but large amounts of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-stearoyl glycerol(POS) and SOS was formed.

The aerial parts of garland (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.) were extracted in 80% aqueous methanol (MeOH) and the concentrated extract was then partitioned using ethyl acetate (EtOAc), n-butanol (n-BuOH), and $H_2O$, successively. EtOAc and n-BuOH fractions resulted in 4 glycerides with the application of octadecyl silica gel and silica gel column chromatography. The chemical structures of the glycerides were determined using several spectroscopic methods, including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry (MS) as (2S)-1-O-palmitoyl-sn-glycerol (1), (2S)-1-O-oleoyl-2-O-oleoyl- 3-O-$\beta$-D-galactopyranosyl-sn-glycerol (2), (2S)-1-O-palmitoyl-2-O-linoleoyl-3-O-phosphorouscholine-sn-glycerol (3), and (2S)-1-O-linolenoyl-2-O-palmitoyl-3-O-[$\alpha$-D-galactopyrasyl-($1{\rightarrow}6$)-$\beta$-D-galactopyranosyl]-sn-glycerol (4). The free fatty acids of these glycerides were determined with gas chromatography (GC)-MS analysis following alkaline hydrolysis and methylation. These glycerides demonstrated an inhibitory effect on acyl-CoA: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT, compound 1: $45.6{\pm}0.2%$ at $100{\mu}g/mL$), diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT, compound 1: $59.1{\pm}0.1%$ at $25{\mu}g/mL$), farnesyl protein transferase (FPTase, compound 2: $98.0{\pm}0.1%$; compound 3: $55.2{\pm}0.1%$ at $100{\mu}g/mL$), and $\beta$-secretase ($IC_{50}$, compound 4: $2.6{\mu}g/mL$) activity. This paper is the first report on the isolation of these glycerides from garland and their inhibitory activity on ACAT, DGAT, FPTase, and $\beta$-secretase.

Synthesis conditions of cocoa butter equivalents were optimized using the response surface method (RSM) by interesterification of canola oil (Ca), palmitic ethyl ester (PEE), and stearic ethyl ester (StEE). The reaction was catalyzed by immobilized lipase (Lipozyme TLIM) from Thermomyces lanuginosa to produce structured lipids containing a composition of triacylglycerols similar to cocoa butter. Reaction conditions were optimized using D-optimal design with the three reaction factors of the substrate molar ratio of canola oil to palmitic ethyl ester and stearic ethyl ester (Ca : PEE : StEE=1:1:3, 1:1.66:5, 1:2:6, 1:2.33:7, 1:3:9, $X_1$), enzyme ratio (2~6%, $X_2$), and reaction time (30~270 min, $X_3$). The optimal conditions that minimized acyl-migration while maximizing 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-stearoyl glycerol (POS), 1,3-distearoyl-2-oleoyl glycerol (SOS), and 1,3-dipalmitoyl-2-oleoyl glycerol (POP) were predicted, resulting in Ca : PEE : StEE=1:3:9, 6% of enzyme ratio, and 40 min of reaction time. The reaction product of structured lipids was synthesized again under the same conditions, showing 10.43 area% of acyl-migration, 25.31 area% of POS/PSO, 19.79 area% of SOS, and 11.22 area% of POP.

The objective of this study was to characterize immunoliposomes carrying plasmid DNA with optimal encapsulation efficiency and antibody density. Plasmid DNA was encapsulated by the freezing/thawing method into liposomes composed of POPC (1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycerol- 3-phosphocholine), DDAB (didodecyl dimethyl ammonium bromide), DSPE-PEG 2000 (distearoyl phosphatidyl ethanolamine polyethylene glycol 2000) and DSPE-PEG 2000-maleimide. The liposomes carrying plasmid DNA were extruded through two stacked polycarbonate filters, of different pore size, to control the liposome size. Then, rat IgG molecules were conjugated to the liposomes. The immunoliposomes containing plasmid DNA were separated from the free plasmid DNA and unconjugated IgG by Sepharose CL-4B column chromatography. The DNA amount encapsulated was affected by DDAB (cationic lipid) concentration, the initial amount of plasmid DNA between 10 ${\mu}g$ and 200 ${\mu}g$, the total lipid amount and plasmid DNA size, but not significantly by liposome size. By varying the ratio of DSPE-PEG 2000-maleimide to IgG, the number of IgG molecules per liposome was changed significantly.

We checked the presence of phospholipase $A_2(PLA)_2$ which could split the ester bond at the position 2 in the glycerol backbone of glycerophospholipids, in the cells of hyperthermophiles of Pyrococcus horikoshii and Sulfolobus acidocaldarius. The results obtained are as follows; (1). Pyrococcus horikoshii cells were grown in obligate anaerobic conditions at $95^{\circ}C$ and they needed sulfur as energy source instead of oxygen, while Sulfolobus acidocaldarius species grew well in the aerobic medium (pH 2.5) containing yeast and sucrose at $75^{\circ}C$. (2). Pyrococcus horikoshii cells produced phospholipase $A_2$ in the cell culture media although this species did not show lipase activity at least in the pH range of 1.5 ${\sim}$ 3.5. Sulfolobus acidocaldarius cells produced lipase hydrolyzing triacylglycerols such as triolein, but did not split any kind of phospholipids used as substates. (3). The compound of 1-decanoyl-2-(p-nitrophenylglutaryl) phosphatidylcholine was not suitable for a substrate in this experiment, though frequently used as a subtrate for checking presence of phospholipase $A_2$, for its decomposi-tion in this experiment. The L-${\alpha}$-phosphatidylcholine-${\beta}$-[N-7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1, 3-diazol]aminohexanoyl-${\gamma}$-hexadecanoyl labelled with a fluorescent material, did not show any migration of acyl chains in the molecule during the reaction with phospholipase $A_2$ under a hot condition. (4). Phospholipase $A_2$ in the cells of Pyrococcus horikoshii, showed the optimum activity at $pH6.7{\sim}7.2$ and $95{\sim}105^{\circ}C$, respectively, and was activated by addition of calcium chloride solution. Andthe phospholipase $A_2$ specifically hydrolyzed glycero-phospholipids such as phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl serine and phosphatidyl inositol, but could not split phospholipid containing ether bonds in the molecule such as DL -${\alpha}$-phosphatidylcholine-${\beta}$-palmitoyl-${\gamma}$-O-hexadecyl, DL-${\alpha}$-phosphati- dylcholine-${\beta}$- oleoyl-${\gamma}$-O-hexadecyl, DL-phosphatidylcholine-dihexadecyl.
