NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -lipase, any of a group of fat-splitting enzymes found in the blood, gastric juices, pancreatic secretions, intestinal juices, and adipose tissues.

Detailed explanation-2: -In humans, the HPL or the human pancreatic lipase is a major enzyme that digests dietary lipids, e.g. triglycerides into monoglycerides and (two) free fatty acids, which then are absorbed in the intestines. Gastric lipases and lingual lipases are another example of lipases secreted by the body to aid in the digestion.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lipases are digestive enzymes that catalyse the hydrolysis of fat (lipid, triglyceride) into free fatty acids (FFA) and monoglycerides, molecules that can be absorbed into the bloodstream [1].

Detailed explanation-4: -A diverse array of genetically distinct lipase enzymes are found in nature, and they represent several types of protein folds and catalytic mechanisms.
