Introduction

Lipase is an enzyme that functions to convert triacylglycerols to 2-monoacylglycerols, it catalyzes the reaction to break down lipids into its subunits. Lipase has 449 amino acid resiudes, and 2 domains, the C Terminal Domains is smaller with 112 residues, and the N Terminal Domain consists of 337 residues. The secondary structural elements of Lipase, including the name='Sandbox_49/Beta_sheets_test_1/1'>Beta Sheets</scene> that make up 30 percent of the amino acid chain, and involving 139 residues as well as the Alpha Helices that make up 22 percent and 102 residues characterize the structure of the protein.
