Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lipase is not a brush border enzyme; it is secreted by the pancreas and works in the lumen of the small intestine, not at the brush border. Brush border enzymes, like enterokinase, aminopeptidase, and lactase, are located on the microvilli of the intestinal epithelial cells.
