1 Transport of lipids Title slide - the transport of lipids. Important because they aren’t water soluble.

2 Electrophoretic separation of the lipoproteins; the particles differ in density.

3 Structure of a plasma lipoprotein.

4 A diagram of the structure.

5 Chylomicrons and VLDLs.

6 HDLs & LDLs.

7 The path of lipoproteins from the gut to other tissues.

8 Leicithin gives a fatty acid to form a cholesterol ester.

9 Cells with coated pits shown as the invaginations - looks like a sockerball.

10 Scheme of receptor-mediated endocytosis of LDL particles.

11 The functions of the lipoprotein particles.

12 Enzymes of lipoprotein metabolism
Enzymes of lipoprotein metabolism. The first one is abbreviated CAT (cholesterol acyltransferase).

13 Fate of the chylomicrons.

14 Fate of VLDL.
