Description

This volume contains eight chapters that present both new and reviewed information fundamental to a clear understanding of lipid catabolism and transport at the molecular level. Three-dimensional structures of important serum lipoproteins, apolipoproteins, and lipases, utilizing X-ray data when available, are emphasized, and an attempt is made to relate structures to function.

Key features

  • Amphipathic helix
  • Apolipoprotein E
  • Lipophorin
  • Structure of serum albumin
  • Lipid binding proteins
  • Apolipoprotein B
  • Low-density lipoprotein

Readership

Biochemists, molecular biologists, cell biologists, and physiologists.
