Self‐Emulsifying Biocatalysis Based on an Amphipathic Protein BslA‐Modified Esterase Functioning as a Fine‐Tuned System for Oil Hydrolysis

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, EarlyView.
BslA is a promising tool to create an robust self‐emulsifying biocatalysis platform by reducing the droplet sizes of emulsion and improving its stability. It could guarantee the efficient hydrolysis of astaxanthin esters catalyzed by Est3‐14 without extra emusifier, increasing the yield of free astaxanthin to 184 μg·mL−1.
