Abstract excerpt
Lipoprotein lipase (LpL) has been shown to mediate the uptake of lipoproteins into cells. The uptake is initiated by binding of LpL to cell surface proteoglycans and to the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-related protein. This ability of LpL is independent of catalytic activity and depends on the intact dimeric structure of the lipase and functional residues in the C-terminal domain. The goal of this study...
