The proteins serve to emulsify the lipid molecules. Many [[enzyme]]s, [[transporter]]s, structural proteins, [[antigen]]s, [[adhesin]]s, and [[toxin]]s are lipoproteins. Examples include the plasma lipoprotein particles classified under high-density ([[HDL]]) and low-density ([[LDL]]) lipoproteins, which enable fats to be carried in the bloodstream, the [[transmembrane protein]]s of the mitochondrion and the chloroplast, and bacterial lipoproteins. ldl.txt Last modified: 2024/06/07 02:50by 127.0.0.1
