General description
Pancreatic cholesterol esterase (CEase), also known as bile salt stimulated lipase, is a serine hydrolase belonging to the α/β hydrolase family of enzymes. They are released from the exocrine pancreas. Serine 194, histidine 435 and aspartate 320 represent the catalytic triad of the enzyme.
Application
- in an in vitro simulated digestion model to improve the hydrolysis of carotenoid esters in the intestinal phase
- to analyze the bioavailability of phytosterol and cholesterol in the aqueous micellar phase of an in vitro simulated digestion model
- as a standard in enzyme activity assay
