The Structure of Human High Density Lipoprotein and the Levels of Apolipoprotein A-I in Plasma as Determined by Radioimmunoassay

Abstract

The major apoprotein of high density lipoprotein is apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I). In addition to being a structural component of this class of lipoproteins, ApoA-I also has a physiologic role as an activator of lecithin-cholesterol acyl transferase, an enzyme important in the metabolism of all lipoproteins.
