Rhizopus oryzae Lipase, a Promising Industrial Enzyme: Biochemical Characteristics, Production and Biocatalytic Applications
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
This is a nice review, which would be very useful to interested readership. I have found some marginal points, which however if amended could further improved the quality i=of the manuscript:
L 102 “pyruvate deScarboxylases”. Please delete that S
L 146 “… are cleavage…”. Please change into “are cleaved”.
L 169 It is nowadays generally recommended the change of sulphur (and deriving words such as disulphide) into sulfur and related counterparts.
Table 2 For coherence with the other entries, pH optima and T optima should be changed into pH optimum and T optimum, respectively.
L 262 for the convenience of readership, please specify the exact structure of homotriacylgycerols: in particular, the exact position of the extra carbon atom should be indicated
L 421-423 The sentence is not clear. Please revise/explain.
Figure 7 Poor resolution. Please check.

Reviewer 2 Report
The authors have conducted a thorough literature review and produced a very good informative article about Rhizopus oryzae lipase. The paper itself is well written, evidence-based and well designed, although sometimes descriptive. However, in my opinion, review articles need to go beyond mere description and ‘state-of-the-literature’ summaries and authors should also offer new insight into understanding by addressing new questions and stimulate further empirical work. I believe that authors should contribute with new innovative questions and introduce some recommendations for future works that will allow move beyond the current knowledge.
