Lipaza

Lipaza je enzim koji katalizuje formiranje ili raskidanje (hidrolizu) masti (lipida).^[1] Lipaze u potklasa esteraza.

Lipaze imaju esencijalne uloge u varenju, transportu i preradi dijetarnih lipida (e.g. triglicerida, masti, ulja) u većini, ako ne i u svim, živim organizmima. Geni koji kodiraju lipaze su čak prisutni i u pojedinim virusima.^[2]^[3]
