Human heart lipoprotein lipase was purified by affinity chromatography on heparin-Sepharose 4B. When crude extracts of heart acetone powder were applied to columsn, about 40% of total lipase activity was bound to the gel and then eluted with 1.5 M NaCl. At this stage the eluted enzyme was purified 1900-fold. Disc gel electrophoresis yielded a single protein band corresponding with lipolytic activity. Minimum molecular weight of the protein was 60,000 as determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The purified enzyme was highly unstable; however, its activity could be partially stabilized at --20C by bovine serum albumin, glycerol, or ethylene glycol. The activity of the purified enzyme (i) had a pH optimum between 7.8 and 8.0; (ii) required serum for full enzymatic activity; apoC-II could be substituted for serum; (iii) was inhibited by by apoC-I in the presence of activated substrate; (iv) was markedly inhibited by NaCl; and (v) was stimulated by heparin.

A triacylglycerol lipase in a mitochondrial fraction isolated from yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) has been characterized and the hydrolysis studied kinetically using an insoluble artificial triacylglycerol suspension. 1. The triacylglycerol was hydrolyzed almost completely to fatty acids and glycerol. The lipase activity was inhibited by potassium fluoride and the sodium salts of -chloride, -glycocholate and -pyrophosphate as well as by protamine sulfate but at concentrations much too high to indicate that the lipase is a non specific esterase or a lipoprotein lipase. Also parachloromercuribenzoate inhibited the lipase activity. Inhibitory effect of fatty acid was observed at concentrations above 1mM. This inhibition may provide a regulatory mechanism of the lipase in vivo. 2. On the day of isolation the lipase activity of intact mitochondria at pH 7.5 and 30 degrees C was 400 nmol free fatty acid -h-1 - mg-1 at a triacylglycerol concentration of 9.0 mM. Sonication of the mitochondria increased the activity 2-3 fold. Freezing of the mitochondria also activated the lipase and this activation was dependent upon the freezing method, the concentration of mitochondrial protein and the presence of bovine serum albumin. 3. The particulate nature of the assay system was illustrated by the observation that the apparent Km value of the lipase increased with the concentration of mitochondrial protein. For each protein concentration the lipase had two apparent Km values when the activity was assayed with intact mitochondria, but only one when assayed with submitochondrial particles. At the same protein concentration the Km value for the latter was identical with the "low affinity" Km for the lipase in intact mitochondria.

An enzyme with characteristics typical of aliesterase has been found in human blood serum using a gas solid chromatographic assay technique. This conflicts with the findings of several authors that aliesterase is absent in the human blood. Another aliesterase is released into the blood stream after intravenous administration of heparin. Partial purification of the aliesterase in normal (preheparin) and postheparin sera was effected by column chromatography using CM- and DEAE-Sephadex. The preheparin aliesterase and postheparin aliesterase have different pH optima of 7.0 and 8.5 respectively. The preheparin aliesterase activity was very sensitive to sodium fluoride and insensitive to a negatively charged detergent, sodium lauryl sulfate, unlike the postheparin esterase which was highly sensitive to sodium lauryl sulfate and comparatively less sensitive to sodium fluoride.

Early effects of lipolysis on the structure of chylomicrons in vitro were studied in rat chylomicrons incubated with purified bovine mild lipoprotein lipase at pH 8.1. The amount of the albumin added to the incubation medium was limited so that free fatty acids (FFA) and partial glycerides formed during lipolysis would accumulate in the chylomicrons. The structures visualized in lipolyzed chylomicrons was found to be affected by pH during preparation of specimens for microscopy, whether fixed with OsO4 and sectioned, or stained with sodium phosphotungstate and examined as whole mounts. Circular aqueous spaces were present in the triglyceride core of lipolyzed chylomicrons processed at pH 8.1 and 7.4. Sometimes the spaces contained aggregates of osmiophilic material and whorls of bilayered lamellae. The spaces were replaced by lamellar structures having a periodicity of 40 A, in chylomicrons processed at pH 5.5, and the spaces and lamellae were both absent at pH 3.0. The findings indicate that these spaces were lined by a lipid monolayer which formed bilayered lamellae under certain conditions. It is concluded that the monolayer lining the aqueous spaces is an inward extension of the chylomicron surface film produced by the accumulation and movement of lipolytic products, FFA and partial glycerides, in the interfacial plane between core triglyceride and water.

Lipoprotein lipase and salt-resistant lipase were isolated from human post-heparin plasma. The proteins of human post-plasma lipoprotein lipase and salt-resistant lipase were identified and demonstrated to be immunologically different. Significant differences between the two enzymes in their relative amino acid composition were demonstrated, which indicates that the two enzymes are different proteins. When analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, the enzymes seemed to have monomer molecular weights similar to that of lipoprotein lipase purified from bovine milk.

The activity of lipoprotein lipase isolated from rat postheparin plasma has been determined with synthetic lipids, in the presence and absence of apoprotein of the natural substrate very low density lipoprotein, as a function of medium ion-pair concentration of a number of different inorganic salts. The several kinetic effects of lipoprotein protein on lipase activity were specifically and quantitatively reversed in the presence of molar sodium chloride or solutions of equivalent effective ion concentrations of other salts. Salt-mediated inhibition was fully reversible by silution and was independent of substrate concentration. Inhibition was a function of the identity of the salt anion within a Hofmeister (lyotropic) series: I- greater than SCN- greater than NO3- greater than Cl- greater than F-, and, in these terms, was not significantly different for a series of inorganic chlorides (Li+, Na+, K+, Cs+). The effects of salts on the natural lipoprotein substrates, chylomicrons, and very low density lipoproteins were similar to those obtained with a synthetic lipid-protein substrate complex. These findings are discussed in the light of recent ideas on the activation of lipoprotein lipase.

Very low density lipoproteins ere isolated from plasma of swine by ultracentrifugal flotation. After delipidation, the lipid-free proteins were separated by chromatography on Sephadex G-150 AND DEAE-cellulose. A major apoprotein was isolated and shown to activate cows' milk lipoprotein lipase. Since human very low density lipoproteins also contain an activator protein, designated, apoC-II, we have called the pig protein, pig apoC-II. Pig apoC-II had a molecular weight of approximately 10 000 as determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. The amino acid composistion showed the absence of histidine, cysteine and tryptophan; there was no evidence for carbohydrate. Treatment of pig apoC-II with carboxypeptidase indicated COOH-terminal serine. Rabbit antisera prepared to the pig protein gave single precipitin lines of complete identity to very low density lipoproteins, apoC-11. Using anti-pig apoC-II, a radioimmunoassay was developed which provides a convenient and reproducible method for measuring 5-1000 ng of apoprotein.

Evidence is presented that hepatic triglyceride lipase (H-TGL) and lipoprotein lipase (LPL), purified from human postheparin plasma, can each hydrolyze both glyceryl trioleate and palmitoyl-CoA. The average ratio of glyceryl trioleate/palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase activities, obtained with enzyme preparations from 15 human postheparin plasma samples was 1.30 (1.18-1.52) for H-TGL and 8.75 (7.45-10.25) for LPL. Albumin was identified as the serum cofactor required for the hydrolysis of palmitoyl-CoA by H-TGL. It protected this enzyme from inactivation by this substrate. In contrast, palmitoyl-CoA activated and protected LPL from denaturation by dilution and incubation at 25 degrees C. The effects of other detergents were investigated on glyceryl trioleate hydrolase activities of both enzymes. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (0.4 mM) and Trisoleate (0.4 mM), which also effectively activated and protected LPL against inactivation, had only moderate protective effect on H-TGL. Sodium dodecyl sulfate at a higher concentration (1 mM) produced little or no inhibition of LPL, while completely inactivating H-TGL. Conversely, sodium taurodeoxycholate (0.4 mM) protected and activated H-TGL, but had only moderate protective effect on LPL. Triton X-100 (0.1-0.8 mM) and egg lysolecithin (0.05-2 mM) also protected H-TGL, but not LPL. The very dissimilar effects of detergents on preparations on H-TGL and LPL may form the basis for the direct assay of each enzyme in the presence of the other.

The subcellular distributions of acidic (pH 4.5) and neutral (pH 7.5) longchain triacylglycerol lipases (glycerol ester hydrolase, EC 3.1.1.3) of pig liver have been determined. The distribution of the acidic lipase closely paralleled that of the lysosomal marker enzyme, cathepsin D. Approx. 60% of the neutral lipolytic activity resided in the soluble fraction;the distribution of this activity failed to parallel that of marker enzymes for mitochondria, lysosomes, microsomes, or plasma membranes. A method has been developed for purification of the neutral lipase from the soluble fraction by ultracentrifugation. An approximate 90-fold purification was achieved, with recovery of 16% of the initial activity. The partially purified neutral lipase exhibited a pH optimum between 7.25 and 7.5. It required 30 mM emulsified triolein for optimal activity and ceased to liberate fatty acids after 30 min of incubation. The enzymatic activity was destroyed by heating at 60 degrees C. Neutral lipase was inhibited by sodium deoxycholate, Triton X-100 and iodoacetamide. The activity was not inhibited by sodium taurocholate, EDTA, heparin and diethyl-p-nitrophenyl phosphate. Neutral lipase failed to exhibit activity in assay systems specific for lipoprotein lipase, monoolein hydrolase, tributyrinase, and methyl butyrate esterase and showed little or no capacity to hydrolyze chyle chylomicrons or plasma very low density lipoproteins. It is suggested that the function of neutral lipase may be to supply the liver with fatty acids liberated from endogenously synthesized or stored triacylglycerols.

Hepatic triglyceride lipase was isolated from human post-heparin plasma by the method of Ehnholm et al. using modifications which increased the specific activity 12-fold to approximately 3,000 mumol of free fatty acid/h/mg of protein. Lipoprotein lipase with similar specific activity was prepared from the same plasma samples using heparin and concanavalin A affinity chromatography. The molecular weight of hepatic triglyceride lipase (69,000) was slightly greater than that of lipoprotein lipase (67,000) as determined by polyacrylamide electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate-containing buffers. These proteins had identical amino acid compositions, terminal amino acid residues, and tryptic peptide maps. However, the differences previously described regarding optima of pH and ionic strength and the requirement for apolipoprotein CII (only for lipoprotein lipase) were maintained in the highly purified state. It was found that both proteins contain approximately 8% carbohydrate. Antisera prepared in goats selectively precipitated each activity. Other antisera prepared in chickens reacted with both enzymes, suggesting a common antigenic determinant.
