title: Rational design of immobilized lipases and phospholipases.
abstract: Immobilization of lipases and phospholipases on, mainly, water insoluble carriers, helps in their economic reuse and in the development of continuous bioprocesses. Design of efficient lipases and phospholipases-immobilized system is rather a difficult task. A lot of research work has been done in order to optimize immobilization techniques and procedures and to develop an efficient immobilized system. A new rational design of immobilized derivatives strategy (RDID) has been conceived in favor of the successful synthesis of optimal lipases and phospholipases-immobilized derivatives, aiming prediction of the immobilized derivative's functionality and the optimization of load studies. RDID begins with the knowledge of structural and functional features of synthesis components (protein and carrier), and the practical goal of immobilized product. RDID was implemented in software named RDID                 (                   1.0                 ). The employment of RDID allows selecting the most appropriate way to prepare immobilized derivatives more efficient in enzymatic bioconversion processes and racemic mixture resolution.
