Descriptor English: Apolipoproteins
Descriptor Spanish: Apolipoproteínas
Descriptor apolipoproteínas
Scope note: Componentes proteicos en la superficie de las LIPOPROTEÍNAS. Forman una capa que rodea la parte central lipídica hidrófoba. Hay varias clases de apolipoproteínas y cada una de ellas desempeña un papel diferente en el transporte de lípidos y del METABOLISMO LIPÍDICO. Estas proteínas son sintetizadas principalmente en el HÍGADO y en los INTESTINOS.

Scope note: Protein components on the surface of LIPOPROTEINS. They form a layer surrounding the hydrophobic lipid core. There are several classes of apolipoproteins with each playing a different role in lipid transport and LIPID METABOLISM. These proteins are synthesized mainly in the LIVER and the INTESTINES.
