MeSH definition : A 513-kDa protein synthesized in the LIVER. It serves as the major structural protein
of low-density lipoproteins (LIPOPROTEINS, LDL; LIPOPROTEINS, VLDL). It is the ligand
for the LDL receptor (RECEPTORS, LDL) that promotes cellular binding and internalization
of LDL particles.;
MeSH synonym : apo-b-100; apo b-100; apo b 100; apob-100; apob 100; apolipoprotein B 100;
