Question

Lipoprotein lipase hydrolyzes ____ from VLDL particles to convert the VLDL into ____. a. triacylglycerols; chylomicrons b. triacylglycerols; HDL particles c. cholesterol esters; HDL particles d. cholesterol esters; LDL particles e. triacylglycerols; LDL particles

Answer 1

The correct option is : e. triacylglycerols; LDL particles

Step-by-step explanation:

Lipases is a class of enzymes, that catalyzes the hydrolysis of lipids.

Lipoprotein lipase is a type of lipase enzyme. This enzyme is responsible for carrying out the hydrolysis of triacylglycerides, which are present in the lipoproteins such as very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and converts it into low density lipoprotein (LDL).
