Inhibition of lipoprotein lipase activity by synthetic peptides of apolipoprotein C-III.
In this study we have examined effects of synthetic polypeptide fragments of apoC-III on the kinetic properties of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity. Based on the loss of 79% of LPL-inhibitory activity after CNBr cleavage at the N-terminal portion of apoC-III and a systematic search for synthetic peptides with LPL-inhibitory activity spanning the apoC-III sequence, we concluded that the N-termi...
متن کاملLipoprotein lipase cofactor activity of a carboxyl-terminal peptide of apolipoprotein C-II.
Apolipoprotein C-II (apoC-II) is a small protein found associated with the plasma lipoproteins. It serves a unique function in the activation of the enzyme lipoprotein lipase (triacylglycerol acyl-hydrolase, EC 3.1.1.3). ApoC-II contains a single arginine residue, permitting tryptic cleavage into two peptides after succinylation of the native protein. The succinylated amino-terminal peptide, ap...
متن کاملReduction of plasma triglycerides in apolipoprotein C-II transgenic mice overexpressing lipoprotein lipase in muscle.
LPL and its specific physiological activator, apolipoprotein C-II (apoC-II), regulate the hydrolysis of triglycerides (TGs) from circulating TG-rich lipoproteins. Previously, we developed a skeletal muscle-specific LPL transgenic mouse that had lower plasma TG levels. ApoC-II transgenic mice develop hypertriglyceridemia attributed to delayed clearance. To investigate whether overexpression of L...
متن کاملHuman plasma high density lipoprotein. Interaction of the cyanogen bromide fragments from apolipoprotein glutamine II (A-II) with phosphatidylcholine.
Apolipoprotein-glutamine(apoLP-Gln-II) is one of the two major protein constituents of human plasma high density lipoproteins (HDL). ApoLP-Gln-II contains two identical chains of 77 amino acids each, which are linked by a single disulfide bond at residue 6. Each chain contains a single methionine at position 26. In the present study we have examined the phospholipid binding properties of apoLPG...
متن کاملMolecular basis of familial chylomicronemia: mutations in the lipoprotein lipase and apolipoprotein C-II genes.
The molecular basis of familial chylomicronemia (type I hyperlipoproteinemia), a rare autosomal recessive trait, was investigated in six unrelated individuals (five of Spanish descent and one of Northern European extraction). DNA amplification by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis allowed rapid identification of the underlying mut...
