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

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.

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]
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 ...

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 ...

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
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]
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 ...
