Triglyceride Metabolism Enzymes
- Molecular classification
- Enzyme
01
Overview
Triglyceride metabolism enzymes are a group of proteins that catalyze the synthesis and breakdown of triglycerides, which are the main form of energy storage in animals. These enzymes play essential roles in lipid homeostasis, energy balance, and metabolic health by regulating both the formation (lipogenesis) and degradation (lipolysis) of triglycerides.
