Plasma phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) plays an important role in lipoprotein metabolism. Two forms of PLTP exist in human plasma, one catalytically active (high activity form, HA-PLTP) and the other inactive (low activity form, LA-PLTP) [Oka et al. (2000) J. Lipid Res. 41, 1651-1657]. The two forms are associated with macromolecular complexes of different size. The apparent size of LA-PLTP is 520 kDa and that of HA-PLTP 160 kDa. Of the circulating PLTP mass only a minor portion is in the HA-PLTP form in normolipidemic subjects. In the present study we have isolated and partially characterized the LA and HA forms of PLTP. Both LA- and HA-PLTP bind to Heparin-Sepharose and can be separated by elution with 0-0.5 M NaCl gradient, with HA-PLTP displaying higher affinity for the matrix. LA-PLTP was further purified using hydrophobic butyl sepharose and anti-PLTP immunoaffinity chromatography steps. HA-PLTP was subjected to a second Heparin-Sepharose step and hydroxylapatite chromatography. Analysis of the two forms of PLTP by SDS-PAGE, Western blotting, immunoprecipitation and gel filtration demonstrates that LA-PLTP is complexed with apoA-I while HA-PLTP is not. Instead, HA-PLTP copurified with apoE. Based on these findings we suggest a model in which nascent PLTP enters the circulation as a high specific activity form not associated with apoA-I. During or after the transfer of lipolytic surface remnants to HDL, PLTP is transferred to apoA-I-containing HDL particles and thereby becomes part of the low-activity complex.
