Abstract excerpt
The molecular models of two microbial lipases and human pancreatic lipase (PL) have suggested the existence of common structural motifs including a buried active site shielded by an amphipathic surface loop. In an effort to explore the role of residues comprising the loop of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), we have used site-directed mutagenesis to generate three new LPL variants. In variant LPLM1 we deleted 18 amino...
