In enzymology, an acylglycerol lipase (EC 3.1.1.23) is an enzyme that catalyzes a chemical reaction that uses water molecules to break the glycerol monoesters of long-chain fatty acids. This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on carboxylic ester bonds. This enzyme participates in glycerolipid metabolism.
