The gastrointestinal tract is a complex and intricate machinery to process and absorb
nutrients from food in a highly controlled and efficient way. One of the main purposes is to …

Pancreatic lipase is a surface-active protein that binds avidly to interfaces comprised of the
substrates and products of lipolysis. However, both lipase binding to substrate-containing …

Although the bioavailability of dietary lipids is of primary importance in human nutrition and
health, the mechanisms involved in lipid digestion are not fully understood and are of …

A hybrid carbon-dot (C-dot)–hydrogel matrix was constructed and employed for detection of
bacteria. The transduction mechanism is novel, based upon cleavage of ester bonds within …

It is increasingly recognized that changes in the composition of the oil− water interface can
markedly affect pancreatic lipase adsorption and function. To understand interfacial …

Lipids containing the dimethyl BODIPY fluorophore are used in cell biology because their
fluorescence properties change with fluorophore concentration (C.-S. Chen, OC Martin, and …

Pancreatic lipase (PL) and pancreatic lipase‐related proteins 1 and 2 (PLRP1 and PLRP2)
display different functional properties, despite close structures. The aim of the study was to …

Background: Dietary fats must be digested into fatty acids and monoacylglycerols prior to
absorption. In adults, colipase-dependent pancreatic triglyceride lipase (PTL) contributes …

Colipase is a cofactor protein which forms a 1: 1 complex with pancreatic lipase. This
facilitates lipase adsorption to phosphatidylcholine-rich interfaces, presumably as a …

The interaction of pancreatic triglyceride lipase and colipase at an oil–water interface is
required for efficient digestion of dietary fats and provides a model system for the interaction …
