Abstract excerpt
We have previously reported a Trp382 (TGG)-->stop (TGA) mutation that causes familial lipoprotein lipase (LPL) deficiency. Expression study of the Trp382-->stop mutant showed that the truncated LPL was catalytically inactive with a marked reduction in the expressed mass. To investigate the minimal amino-terminal sequence of human LPL required for an active enzyme, a series of carboxy-terminal (C-terminal)...
