- Pancreatic lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerol in a sequential manner
- Pancreatic lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerol producing 1,2-diacyIglycerol, 2-monoacylglycerol, and fatty acids
- We have investigated the effect of bile salt and colipase on the rates of triacylglycerol and diacylglycerol hydrolysis
- We purified Human pancreatic lipase according to an established procedure for comparison to Rabbit pancreatic lipase
- Our results indicate that the kinetic equations of sequential reactions provide a satisfactory description of the whole process of lipolysis
- The main findings of the present study are summarized as follows : RPL hydrolyzes dioleoylglycerol faster than trioleoylglycerol; deoxycholate enhances dioleoylglycerol hydrolysis preferentially ; colipase leads to a similar increase in the rate of both reactions at high deoxycholate concentration in contrast to a slight selectivity toward trioleoylglycerol at low deoxycholate concentration ;(d) upon storage the enzyme suffers a greater loss of activity toward dioleoylglycerol as compared to trioleoylglycerol ; kinetic properties and stability patterns appear to be very similar between RPL and HPL
