1. A method of catalyzing an interesterification reaction to produce new triacylglycerides comprising the following steps:
- (a) providing a composition comprising a polypeptide having a 1,3-specific palmitase activity, said polypeptide being selected from the group consisting of isolated, synthetic or recombinant polypeptides having a 1,3-specific palmitase activity and said polypeptide eitheri. being encoded bya nucleic acid comprising a nucleic acid sequence having at least 85% sequence identity to full length SEQ ID NO;
1, and wherein the nucleic acid encodes at least one polypeptide having 1,3-specific palmitase activity and the polypeptide having at least one amino acid residue change recited below in Table A, orii. having at least 85% sequence identity to full length SEQ ID NO;
2, and having at least one amino acid residue change recited in Table A,

Abstract
Provided are hydrolases, including lipases, saturases, palmitases and/or stearatases, and polynucleotides encoding them, and methods of making and using these polynucleotides and polypeptides. Further provided are polypeptides, e.g., enzymes, having a hydrolase activity, e.g., lipases, saturases, palmitases and/or stearatases and methods for preparing low saturate or low trans fat oils, such as low saturate or low trans fat animal or vegetable oils, e.g., soy or canola oils.
