Effects of albumin and apolipoprotein C-II on the acyl-chain specificity of lipoprotein lipase catalysis.

In this study we used monoacid triacylglycerols of various acyl-chain lengths as substrates for probing the active-site structure and substrate specificity of lipoprotein lipase (LPL). An unexpected finding was that the albumin ligand binding site is accessible not only to long-chain fatty acids for...
