Abstract

A cDNA clone encoding lipoprotein lipase has been isolated from an ovine adipocyte library. Sequencing of this clone has revealed a single open reading frame encoding a 450 amino acid protein. Comparison with known LPL sequences from other species shows a high degree of conservation in the sequence of the protein and in the 5' untranslated region of the DNA sequence.
