Binding of hepatic lipase to heparin: identification of specific heparin-binding residues in two distinct positive charge clusters

The interaction of hepatic lipase (HL) with heparan sulfate is critical to the function of this enzyme. The primary amino acid sequence of HL was compared to that of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), a related enzyme that possesses several putative heparin-binding domains. Of the three putative heparin-bind...
