METHOD FOR PRODUCING RANDOM-INTERESTERIFIED FAT OR OIL

摘要

The present invention provides a highly heat-resistant lipase which enables high-temperature random interesterification of a fat or oil. Incidentally, high-temperature random interesterification of a fat or oil cannot be achieved by a conventional lipase. A lipase originating from Burkholderia plantarii can retain the activity even at high temperature, so that the use of the lipase makes it possible to produce a random-interesterified fat or oil efficiently. The fat or oil to be produced by this method is preferably a triacylglyceride.
