Lipoprotein Lipase (LPL)

Store lyophilized at -20°C. Aliquot the product after reconstitution to avoid repeated freezing/thawing cycles.

Human Lipoprotein Lipase (LPL) Enzyme is a recombinant enzyme produced in HEK cells. LPL encodes lipoprotein lipase, which is expressed in heart, muscle, and adipose tissue. LPL functions as a homodimer, and has the dual functions of triglyceride hydrolase and ligand/bridging factor for receptor-mediated lipoprotein uptake. Severe mutations that cause LPL deficiency result in type I hyperlipoproteinemia, while less extreme mutations in LPL are linked to many disorders of lipoprotein metabolism.
