Description
Summary:The biogeneration of 1-octen-3-ol by lipoxygenase and associated hydroperoxide lyase activities of a homogenate of the cultivated mushroom Agaricus bisporus was investigated using linoleic acid as a substrate. The optimal substrate and protein concentrations were 1.5 mM and 1.5 mg ml −1, respectively. The V max value for the enzymic coupled reaction lipoxygenase–hydroperoxide lyase was 6 μg of 1-octen-3-ol ml −1 min −1, with a K m value of 0.3×10 −3 M. The highest enzymic activity was observed in the presence of pure oxygen (22.9 μg of 1-octen-3-ol ml −1), with a bioconversion yield of 36%. The production of 380 μg 1-octen-3-ol per g of mushroom homogenate was demonstrated using an oxygenated reaction medium of 1-l containing 0.5% polyvinylpyrrolidone.
