SUMMARY: L i p o p r o t e i n lipase a c t i v i t y was p u r i f i e d from rat postheparin serum. An a n t i b o d y against this a c t i v i t y was raised. It was found that this a n t i b o d y inhibits 95% of the p o s t h e p a r i n lipoprorein lipase activity. The same i n h i b i t i o n was found in the perfusate of h e p a r i n - p e r f u s e d rat liver. When m e a s u r i n g l i p o p r o t e i n lipase a c t i v i t y in p e r f u s a t e s of rat hearts, p e r f u s e d with heparin, no i n h i b i t i o n by this a n t i b o d y was found. It is c o n c l u d e d that lip o p r o t e i n lipase a c t i v i t i e s from heart and liver are e a t a l y s e d by d i f f e r e n t enzymes and that the heart enzyme c o n t r i b u t e s not more than 5% to the overall lipase a c t i v i t y in p o s t h e p a r i n serum.
