Also certain parts of the image that are supposed to be transparent are no longer so. There seems to be nothing able to be done about this issue. So after viewing the subunit contacts scene, hydrogen bonding scene, cysteine scene, the salt bridge scene, the first calcium ion interaction scene ("four residues"), and any van der waals interaction scenes please refresh the page as that seems to allow the other links to work properly again. | ||

Lipase is a hydrolase that catalyzes the breakdown of lipids by hydrolyzing the esters of fatty acids. 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 (PDB ID: 1HPL) which is pictured below is a carboxylic ester hydrolase. It is also commonly called pancreatic triacylglycerol lipase and its enzyme class number is E.C. 3.1.1.3 <ref name="1HPL PDB SUM">[http://www.ebi.ac.uk/thornton-srv/databases/cgi-bin/pdbsum/GetPage.pl?pdbcode=1hpl&template=main.html] 1HPL PDB SUM </ref>. The reaction catalyzed by this enzyme is shown below. [[Image:Picture 1.png]] | Lipase is a hydrolase that catalyzes the breakdown of lipids by hydrolyzing the esters of fatty acids.
