This is the first report on neutral lipasefrom the cephalic part of B. terrestris labial glands. Purified lipase BT-1 displays broad specificity but preferentially hydrolyzes shorter fatty acid chains (C8-C12) from diacylglycerols and triacylglycerols. The lipase is most active at neutral pH, with a pH optimum of 8.3. The highest level of lipase BT-1 gene and protein expression is in young individuals. In bumblebees older than 3 days, the lipase gene expression level and enzymatic activity are decreased. Interestingly, according to transcript-level RNA seq analysis, the expression of lipase BT-1 is significantly higher in the bumblebee labial gland than in the fat body. The lipase BT-1 gene is the second most abundantly expressed gene in the labial gland of B. terrestris, which suggests important role of this enzyme in this tissue where pheromones are accumulated.
