 | | differ in the ratio of protein to lipids, and in the particular apoproteins and lipids that they contain, as summarized in Table 12-6 p. |
 | | MTP facilitates transfer of lipids to apoprotein B-100 while B-100 is being translocated into the ER lumen during translation. |
 | | Whereas VLDL contains 5 different apoprotein types (B-100, C-I, C-II, C-III, and E), only one protein, apoprotein B-100, is associated with the surface monolayer of LDL. |
