Lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) from Candida cylindracea and Rhizopus delemar were found to catalyze O‐acylation of L‐homoserine or L‐serine with free fatty acids or with fatty acids from triacylglycerol. The active pH range of the reation for O‐acylation was from 7.0 to 8.5. Emulsifying activity of O‐oleoyl‐L‐homoserine was higher than those of conventional surfactants.
