PANCREATIC LIPASE AND TRIGLYCERIDE DIGESTION
Term
PROPERTIES OF PANCREATIC LIPASE
Definition
  • Secreted in ACTIVEform
  • Inhibited by high concentration of Free Fatty Acids
  • pH optimum 6-7 (normal duodeno-jejunal pH)
  • Interfacial enzyme; inhibited by Bile Salts
  • Positional Specificity; removes fatty acid from the 1 and 1’ positions only 
  • Acid labile enzyme; inactivated at pH < 3
  • Secreted in great excess; safety factor
Term
