What does the enzymes lipase do?
Lipases are esterase enzymes that act to convert lipids (such as fats, oils, triglycerides and triacylglycerides) into other forms. They are an essential part of nearly all living organisms. In the human body, pancreatic lipase is a dietary enzyme that acts in the intestine to break down fats and oils into forms that the body can metabolize. Hepatic lipase and lipoprotein lipase are dietary proteins which act to manage the lipoproteins (HDL, LDL and VLDL) that carry triglycerides and fatty acids throughout the bloodstream.
