Lipase is a hydrolase that catalyzes the breakdown of lipids. Lipases are important in digestion, promoting absorption of fats in the intestines. Lipase is primarily found in the pancreas but is also found in the mouth and the stomach. Pancreatic lipase which is pictured below catalyzes the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols at the 1 and 3 positions to from 1,2-diacylglycerols and 2-acylglycerols. Pancreatic liapase consists of two identical chains, totaling 449 residues.

Lipase Secondary Structure<StructureSection load='1HPL' size='500' side='right' caption='Structure of HMG-CoA reductase (PDB entry [[1HPL]])' scene=''>The two identical chains of lipase are pictured in blue-gray and green. Lipase has a <scene name='Sandbox_45/Secondary_structure/1'>secondary structure</scene> consisting of 22% alpha helices, which are shown in blue, and 30% beta sheets, which are shown in bright green. The rest of the secondary structure consists of ordered, nonrepetitive structure. Lipase also contains six disulfide bonds which are illustrated by the yellow rods. <scene name='Sandbox_45/Hydrophobic_residues/2'>Hydrophobic Residues</scene> Lipase contains three important <scene name='Sandbox_45/Active_site/5'>active site residues</scene> which are highlighted in yellow. These three catalytic residues are all located in the A chain and consist of Ser 152, Asp 172, and His 263.
