Lipases are ubiquitous enzymes which catalyse the hydrolysis of
triacylglycerols to glycerols and free fatty acids. Due to their
characteristics of enantioselectivity and regioselectivity and
stability in organic solvents, they have gained importance in
industrial applications. In this book, the authors examine the
functions, synthesis and role in disease of lipases. Topics
discussed include the action of lipases as a biotechnological tool;
fungal lipases in biocatalysis; secreted phospholipase A2
inhibitors from cynara cardunculus L. and aloe vera extract as a
potential therapeutic drug for inflammatory diseases; lipoprotein
lipase activity in sickle cell nephropathy; lipases in the
pharmaceutical industry; and yeast cell surface display of lipases.
