Using cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET), we observe that LPL exists inside of storage vesicles as a filament with an 11-nanometer diameter and is packed in these vesicles in two distinct patterns. Next, we solved a 4.2-Å resolution cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of this 11-nanometer LPL filament using purified protein. The filament is made of repeating pairs of LPL molecules with occluded active sites, rendering the LPL inactive. The comparison of the in situ subtomogram average and the in vitro cryo-EM structure indicates that the previously uncharacterized physiological storage form of LPL is an inactive filament.
