【 摘 要 】
The digestive gland of craboids (hepatopancreas) is rich in a huge number of various enzymes (collagenases, nucleases, hyaluronidases, proteases), which are well studied at the moment. However, little is known about crustacean lipases. In this work, using 1H NMR spectroscopy, it was found that the hepatopancreas homogenate of the red king crab Paralithodes camtschaticus demonstrates high lipolytic activity against triacetin in a wide pH range and shows moderate activity against the caprylic/capric triglyceride emulsion. Under the action of the hepatopancreas homogenate, triacylglycerols are converted into 1,2-diacylglycerol, and then into 2-monoacylglycerol and 1-monoacylglycerol. The 1-monoacylglycerol predominates in the reaction products. The use of NMR spectroscopy makes it possible to quickly detect hydrolysis products and evaluate the reaction direction.
