Product Specs

Introduction
Lipase Endothelial (LIPG) is an enzyme with significant phospholipase activity that may play a role in lipoprotein metabolism and vascular health. It is classified as a member of the TG lipase family due to its sequence and a unique 'lid region,' which determines substrate specificity for enzymes within this family. LIPG also exhibits triglyceride lipase activities and demonstrates a higher efficiency in hydrolyzing HDLs compared to other lipoproteins. Additionally, LIPG has the ability to bind heparin.
Description
Recombinant human LIPG, produced in HEK cells, is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of amino acids Ser21 to Pro500 (total 490 amino acids). It has a calculated molecular mass of 55.8 kDa. This LIPG protein includes a 2 amino acid N-terminal linker, a 2 amino acid C-terminal linker, and a 6 amino acid His tag located at the C-terminus.
Physical Appearance
White powder, lyophilized (freeze-dried), and filtered.
Formulation
The LIPG protein was subjected to filtration (using a 0.4 µm filter) and lyophilized from a solution containing phosphate buffered saline at pH 7.5 (PBS), 1% (w/v) Sucrose, and 4% (w/v) Mannitol.
Solubility
To prepare a working stock solution, it is advised to add deionized water to the lyophilized pellet aiming for a concentration of approximately 0.5 mg/ml. Allow the pellet to dissolve completely. Important: This LIPG product is not sterile. Prior to use in cell culture, it is essential to filter the solution through a sterile filter of appropriate pore size.
Stability
The lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C. After reconstitution, it is recommended to aliquot the product to avoid repeated cycles of freezing and thawing. The reconstituted protein can be stored at 4°C for a limited time; stability studies indicate no change in protein quality after two weeks at 4°C.
Purity
Purity determined by SDS-PAGE is greater than 85.0%.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Production

Lipase Endothelial (LIPG) is produced as a recombinant protein in HEK 293 cells. The recombinant form is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of 490 amino acids, with a calculated molecular mass of approximately 55.8 kDa . The protein is fused to a 6 amino acid His tag at the C-terminus, which facilitates its purification .

Function and Activity

LIPG exhibits extensive phospholipase activity and is more active as a phospholipase than a triglyceride lipase . It hydrolyzes high-density lipoproteins (HDL) more efficiently than other lipoproteins, which is significant for its role in lipoprotein metabolism . Additionally, LIPG binds heparin, which may influence its activity and interactions within the vascular system .

Applications

Recombinant LIPG is used in various research applications, including studies on lipoprotein metabolism, cardiovascular diseases, and enzyme-substrate interactions. It is suitable for techniques such as SDS-PAGE, ELISA, and mass spectrometry (MS) .

Storage and Stability

The lyophilized form of LIPG should be stored at -20°C. After reconstitution, it is recommended to aliquot the product to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. The reconstituted protein can be stored at 4°C for a limited period without significant loss of activity .
