Abstract excerpt
Previously, we reported a case with type I hyperlipidemia due to a lipid interface recognition deficiency in lipoprotein lipase (LPL) (1). The LPL from postheparin plasma of this patient did not hydrolyze TritonX-100-triolein or very low density lipoprotein-triolein but did hydrolyze tributyrin and LysoPC-triolein substrates. Sequence analysis of the probands DNA revealed a heterozygous nucleotide change: a...
