- Lipase - Wikipedia
Lipase is a class of enzymes that catalyzes the hydrolysis of fats Some lipases display broad substrate scope including esters of cholesterol, phospholipids, and of lipid-soluble vitamins [1][2] and sphingomyelinases; [3] however, these are usually treated separately from "conventional" lipases
- Lipase | Fat-digesting, Pancreatic, Lipolytic | Britannica
lipase, any of a group of fat-splitting enzymes found in the blood, gastric juices, pancreatic secretions, intestinal juices, and adipose tissues Lipases hydrolyze triglycerides (fats) into their component fatty acid and glycerol molecules
- Lipase Mechanisms: Structure, Activation, and Inhibition Explained . . .
Lipases are essential enzymes that play a role in the digestion, transport, and processing of dietary lipids They facilitate the breakdown of fats into fatty acids and glycerol, which can then be absorbed by the body
- Lipases | SpringerLink
Lipases perform essential roles in the digestion, transport, and mobilization of lipids in most, if not all, living organisms They are widely distributed in animals, plants, and prokaryotes, even viruses
- Lipase - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Lipase is defined as an enzyme that breaks down fats and oils into fatty acids and glycerol, produced by various organisms including animals, plants, bacteria, and fungi It has significant industrial and biotechnological applications, particularly in biodiesel production, detergents, food additives, and pharmaceuticals
- Lipases: an overview - PubMed
Lipases are ubiquitous enzymes, widespread in nature They were first isolated from bacteria in the early nineteenth century and the associated research continuously increased due to the particular characteristics of these enzymes
- Lipases: its not just pancreatic lipase! in: American Journal of . . .
Lipases are water-soluble enzymes that hydrolyze water-insoluble lipid molecules, such as triglycerides, phospholipids, and galactolipids They are ubiquitous in nature and are present in humans, animals, insects, plants, fungi, and microorganisms
