Key enzyme in triglyceride metabolism. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of triglycerides from circulating chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), and thereby plays an important role in lipid clearance from the blood stream, lipid utilization and storage. Although it has both phospholipase and triglyceride lipase activities it is primarily a triglyceride lipase with low but detectable phospholipase activity. Mediates margination of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein particles in capillaries. Recruited to its site of action on vascular endothelium by binding to GPIHBP1 and cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa28-474 from mouse Lipoprotein lipase, fused to 10X His-Tag at N-terminal and Myc-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in Mammalian cell.
