Descriptor vitelinas
Scope note: Principales proteínas de la yema de huevo de los animales ovíparos, como los VERTEBRADOS no mamíferos, los ARTRÓPODOS y otros. Son lipoglicoproteínas de alta densidad, derivadas de precursores circulantes, las VITELOGENINAS. Las vitelinas sirven como nutrientes para los embriones en crecimiento (EMBRIÓN NO MAMÍFERO).

Scope note: Major egg yolk proteins from egg-laying animals such as non-mammalian VERTEBRATES; ARTHROPODS; and others. They are high-density lipoglycoproteins derived from circulating precursors, VITELLOGENINS. Vitellins serve as nutrients for the growing non-mammalian embryos (EMBRYO, NONMAMMALIAN).
