Product name:Rat lipoprotein lipase,LPL ELISA Kit
Description:
Lipoprotein lipase (EC 3.1.1.34) is an enzyme which hydrolyzes lipids in lipoproteins, like those found in chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), into three free fatty acids and one glycerol molecule. It requires Apo-CII as a cofactor.
Lipoprotein lipase is specifically found in endothelial cells lining the capillaries.LPL encodes lipoprotein lipase, which is expressed in heart, muscle, and adipose tissue. LPL functions as a homodimer, and has the dual functions of triglyceride hydrolase and ligand/bridging factor for receptor-mediated lipoprotein uptake.
