Question

The first step in the metabolism of triacylglycerols is the hydrolysis of the ester linkage by a lipase. Three different lipases play major roles in triacylglycerol metabolism in animals: pancreatic lipase (a water‑soluble lipase secreted into the intestine), lipoprotein lipase, and hormone‑sensitive lipase.

For the given statements, identify which lipase best fits the description. If none of the lipases apply, choose "none of the lipases."

The enzyme is stimulated by epinephrine.

The enzyme requires bile salts for activity.

The enzyme hydrolyzes cholesterol esters.

The enzyme is located in blood capillaries.

Answer 1

Answer -

Pancreatic Lipase is the lipases that is chief lipases in the human body

The enzyme is stimulated by epinephrine.

The enzyme requires bile salts for activity.

The enzyme hydrolyzes cholesterol esters.

The enzyme is located in blood capillaries.

These all comes under pancreatic lipases
