Cholesterol esterase
Active
Description
Cholesterol esterase (lysosomal acid lipase, LAL) is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of cholesterol and other sterol esters, to release cholesterol plus a fatty acid anion. Cholesterol esterase activity is used to diagnose lysosomal storage disorders, Wolman Disease and Cholesteryl Ester Storage Disease (CESD), which are due to a deficiency of this enzyme.
