| + | Apolipoproteins are proteins that coat lipoprotein surface that binds lipids such as cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or high-density lipoproteins (HDL) in lipid metabolism. They function in the transport of such lipids in their structure that acts as a ligand to cell receptors and lipid transport proteins. Amphipathic structural behavior are what allows the interaction between hydrophobic properties of water, such as in the blood stream and hydrophobic lipids. | ||
