A variant of apolipoprotein B derived from rat intestine differs from normal plasma LDL apolipoprotein B in its immunological properties and apparent molecular weight.
A variant of apolipoprotein B has been observed in the lymph lipoproteins chylomicrons, very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), and low density lipoproteins (LDL) of rats, in the plasma VLDL of fed rats, and in the plasma VLDL and LDL of rats fed a high-fat, high-cholesterol diet. It is the sole apolipoprotein B in the chylomicrons and VLDL of lymph. It differs from the apolipoprotein B of normal plasma LDL in its immunological properties and in its apparent molecular weight from electrophoresis on 3.5% NaDodSO4/polyacrylamide gel.
Krishnaiah et al. (Tue,) reported a other. Apolipoprotein B variant vs. Apolipoprotein B of normal plasma LDL was evaluated on Immunological properties and apparent molecular weight. A variant of apolipoprotein B derived from rat intestine differs from normal plasma LDL apolipoprotein B in its immunological properties and apparent molecular weight.
