Lipolysis of different oils using crude enzyme isolate from the intestinal tract of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
Crude enzyme isolate was prepared from the intestine of rainbow trout. Positional specificity of the crude enzyme isolate was determined from both 1(3)- and 2-MAG products after in vitro lipolysis of radioactive-labeled triolein. The ratio of 2-MAG/1(3)-MAG was 2:1, suggesting that the overall lipase specificity of the enzyme isolate from rainbow trout tended to be 1,3-specific; however, activity against the sn-2 position also was shown. In vitro lipolysis of four different unlabeled oils was performed with the crude enzyme isolate. The oils were: structured lipid [SL; containing the medium-chain FA (MCFA) 8:0 in the sn-1,3 positions and long-chain FA (LCFA) in the sn-2 position], DAG oil (mainly 1,3-DAG), fish oil (FO), and triolein (TO). MCFA were rapidly hydrolyzed from the SL oil. LCFA including n-3 PUFA were, however, preserved in the sn-2 position and therefore found in higher amounts in 2-MAG of SL compared with 2-MAG of FO, DAG, and TO. Lipolysis of the DAG oil produced higher amounts of MAG than the TAG oils, and 1(3)-MAG mainly was observed after lipolysis of the DAG oil. The positional specificity determined and the results from the hydrolysis of the different oils suggest that n-3 very long-chain PUFA from structured oils may be used better by aquacultured fish than that from fish oils.
