The acid lipase gene family: three enzymes, one highly conserved gene structure

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1997
Human gastric lipase (HGL; triacylglycerol lipase; EC 3.1.1.3) plays an important role in the digestion of dietary triglycerides in the gastrointestinal tract, especially in patients suffering from pancreatic lipase deficiencies.

Kinetics of the two-step hydrolysis of triacylglycerol by pancreatic lipases [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1995
Pancreatic lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerol in a sequential manner. First, triacylglycerol is hydrolyzed to 1,2‐diacylglycerol, which is subsequently converted to 2‐monoacylglycerol. We studied the kinetics of trioleoylglycerol hydrolysis by rabbit and human pancreatic lipases. The products (acylglycerols and fatty acid) were analyzed

Lipid transfer from insect fat body to lipophorin: comparison between a mosquito triacylglycerol-rich lipophorin and a sphinx moth diacylglycerol-rich lipophorin

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1996
Two insect lipoproteins, triacylglycerol-rich Aedes aegypti lipophorin and diacylglycerol-rich Manduca sexta lipophorin, were compared in their ability to load neutral lipid from fat body. When fat body of M.

Arylacetamide deacetylase attenuates fatty-acid-induced triacylglycerol accumulation in rat hepatoma cells

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2010
Mobilization of hepatic triacylglycerol stores provides substrates for mitochondrial β-oxidation and assembly of VLDLs; however, the identity of lipolytic enzymes involved in the regulation of this process remains largely unknown.

Homology of Drosophila yolk proteins and the triacylglycerol lipase family [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 1988
Drosophila yolk proteins consist of a set of related proteins of 50,000 Mr. They are derived from slightly larger precursors by cleavage of a signal peptide. In this respect, they differ from the yolk proteins of other insects which are proteolytic fragments of precursors of 200,000 Mr or larger, termed vitellogenins and probably homologous to the ...

Effect of increasing lipid loads on the ability of the endoplasmic reticulum to transport lipid to the Golgi

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2000
We have previously shown (Mansbach, C. M. and P. J. Nevin, 1998. J. Lipid Res. 39: 963–968) that after the development of a mass steady state with respect to triacylglycerol absorption in rats, the introduction of radiolabeled trioleoylglycerol, while ...

ISOLATION AND PURIFICATION OF LIPASE FROM COCOA BEANS (Theobroma cacao. L.) OF CLONE PBC 159

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Chemistry, 2010
Lipase (triacylglycerol acylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.3) was extracted and purified from acetone dry powder of cocoa (Theobroma cacao. L.) of clone PBC 159 extract.

Crystal structure of the predicted phospholipase LYPLAL1 reveals unexpected functional plasticity despite close relationship to acyl protein thioesterases

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
Sequence homology indicates the existence of three human cytosolic acyl protein thioesterases, including APT1 that is known to depalmitoylate H- and N-Ras. One of them is the lysophospholipase-like 1 (LYPLAL1) protein that on the one hand is predicted to

Hormone-Sensitive Lipase Knockouts

open access: yesNutrition & Metabolism, 2006
All treatments for obesity, including dietary restriction of carbohydrates, have a goal of reducing the storage of fat in adipocytes. The chief enzyme responsible for the mobilization of FFA from adipose tissue, i.e., lipolysis, is thought to be hormone ...

Crystal structure of Proteus mirabilis lipase, a novel lipase from the Proteus/psychrophilic subfamily of lipase family I.1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Bacterial lipases from family I.1 and I.2 catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerol between 25-45°C and are used extensively as biocatalysts. The lipase from Proteus mirabilis belongs to the Proteus/psychrophilic subfamily of lipase family I.1 and is a ...
