Description

Lipase from Candida antarctica is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of lipids. The immobilized form of this enzyme has been used in the production of biodiesel. Lipase from Candida antarctica can be used to degrade triglycerides, leading to the production of glycerol and fatty acids. This enzyme also has a role in lipoprotein metabolism by degrading chylomicrons and very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL). Lipases in humans are is found in pancreatic tissue and adipose tissue and play a role in insulin secretion and the breakdown of fat soluble vitamins.
