GlossaryLipase (Lipase enzyme)

enzyme that breaks down fats into fatty acids and glycerol

Lipase is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the digestion of dietary fats. It breaks down triglycerides into free fatty acids and glycerol, making them easier for the body to absorb. This enzyme is produced primarily in the pancreas but is also found in the stomach and mouth.

research Evaluation of Geh Gene Expression in Staphylococcus Aureus Isolated from Acne Patients

October 2024 in “Tikrit Journal of Pure Science”

This study investigated the expression of the Geh gene, responsible for lipase enzyme production, in Staphylococcus aureus isolated from acne patients. Out of 130 swabs collected from patients at Tikrit Teaching Hospital, 50 samples (38.4%) were identified as S. aureus. The Geh gene expression was analyzed in 10 isolates using RT-PCR, revealing expression levels ranging from 1.5 to 7.2, with a mean folding of 4.2. The findings suggest that the lipase enzyme, produced due to high Geh gene expression, plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of S. aureus in acne patients.
