Lysosomal acid lipase (LIPA, or LAL), otherwise known as acid cholesteryl ester hydrolase, is coded for by a gene (LIPA) on chromosome 10.
Two major disorders, the severe infantile-onset Wolman disease and the milder late-onset cholesteryl ester storage disease (CESD), are seemingly caused by mutations in different parts of the LIPA gene.
