? Lipoproteins are types of

Compound Lipids /Conjugated

Proteins.

--- Content provided by​ FirstRanker.com ---

? Lipoproteins are macromolecules

formed by aggregation of :

? Lipids (Neutral and Amphipathic )

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---

? Proteins( Apoprotein) in the

human body.

? Lipoproteins acquire polarity

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---


(Hydrophilic Property)
? Lipoprotein serve as vehicles

for transportation of Neutral

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---


and Amphipathic Lipids

through aqueous media blood

--- Content provided by‍ FirstRanker.com ---

and lymph.

?Lipoproteins are

biosynthesized within the

forms of Lipids and

Apoproteins.

? The non polar /hydrophobic Lipids TAG and

Cholesterol Ester are gathered central y to

form the core of LipoProtein particle.

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---


? At the periphery of Lipoprotein are

Apoprotein and Amphipathic Lipids viz

--- Content provided by‍ FirstRanker.com ---

Phospholipids and Cholesterol.


? The Apoprotein and polar groups of

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---

Amphipathic Lipids impart

hydrophilic property to Lipoprotein

molecules

? This helps in transportation of

Lipids

? From site of origin to site of

utilization through blood.
