Abstract
Thermally stable, positionally non-specific lipases native to Candida species of C. antartica, C. tsukubaensis, C. auriculariae, C. humicola, and C. foliarum, are isolated. The lipase of C. antarctica, is preferred. Two lipase activities are elaborated by C. antarctica. One lipase fraction being 43 kD in molecular weight, and of an isoelectric point of about 8.0 and has excellent thermostability. The other fraction being 33 kD in molecular weight and of an isoelectric point of about 6.0 and has high retention of residual activity at pH 10.
