Endothelial lipase (EL) has been shown to be a critical determinant for high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in vivo; therefore, assays that measure EL activity have become important for the discovery of small molecule inhibitors that specifically target EL. Here, we describe fluorescent Bodipy-labeled substrates that can be used in ... More
