title: [Isolation and characterization of lipase from Geotrichum asteroides FKM F-144].
abstract: By gel chromatography on Sephadex G-75 it has been demonstrated that the culture fluid of Geotrichum asteroides VKM F-144 contains two lipolytic components, one of which, lipase 1, eluates in the free volume of the column, whereas the second component, lipase 2, eluates in the volume close to that of the egg albumin yield. The paper describes a method for lipase 2 preparation consisting of precipitation of accompanying compounds at pH 4.2, depigmentation of the supernatant on the resin PAP in the Cl-form, selective sorption of lipase on the cation exchange resin CMC and further purification of the eluate gel chromatography and Sephadex G-100 rechromatography. The molecular weight of the lipase is estimated to be 45,000 and the isoelectric point to correspond to pH 4.3. pH optimum of action of the purified enzyme, areas of its pH- and thermostability have been determined.
