Subcellular location [CC]Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11151};
Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11151};
Extracellular side {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11151}. Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11342582, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11893776, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12641539, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1371284, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2340307, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27578112, ECO:0000269|PubMed:30559189}. Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27811232}. Note=Newly synthesized LPL binds to cell surface heparan proteoglycans and is then released by heparanase. Subsequently, it becomes attached to heparan proteoglycan on endothelial cells (PubMed:27811232). Locates to the plasma membrane of microvilli of hepatocytes with triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL). Some of the bound LPL is then internalized and located inside non-coated endocytic vesicles (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11151, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27811232}.
