===Enzymes=== Peripheral enzymes participate in [[metabolism]] of different membrane components, such as lipids ([[phospholipase]]s and [[cholesterol oxidase]]s), [[cell wall]] [[oligosaccharides]] ([[glycosyltransferase]] and [[transglycosidases]]), or proteins ([[signal peptidase]] and [[palmitoyl protein thioesterase]]s). [[Lipases]] can also digest lipids that form [[micelle]]s or nonpolar droplets in water. {| class="wikitable" style="margin: 1em auto 1em auto" !width="180"|Class !width="275"|Function !width="305"| Physiology !width="50"| Structure |- | [[Alpha/beta hydrolase fold]] || Catalyzes the [[hydrolysis]] of chemical bonds.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.sanger.ac.uk//cgi-bin/Pfam/getacc?PF00561 |title=Pfam entry Abhydrolase 1 |access-date=2007-01-25 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070929115310/http://www.sanger.ac.uk//cgi-bin/Pfam/getacc?PF00561 |archive-date=2007-09-29 |url-status=dead }}</ref>|| Includes [[bacteria]]l, [[fungal]], gastric and pancreatic [[lipase]]s, palmitoyl protein [[thioesterase]]s, [[cutin]]ase, and [[cholinesterase]]s ||central beta sheet inserted in between two layers of alpha helices<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Bauer |first1=Tabea L. |last2=Buchholz |first2=Patrick C.
