Nekoliko drugih tipova lipaza se javlja u prirodi, poputfosfolipaza[5] isfingomijelinaza,[6] međutim one se obično razmatraju zasebno od "konvencionih" lipaza.
Neke lipaze izražavaju i izlučujupatogeni organizmi tokominfekcije.Candida albicans ima posebno veliki broj različitih lipaza, sa širokim spektrom lipidnog dejstva. To doprinosi istrajnosti i virulencijiC. albicans u ljudskom tkivu.[7]
