Polyhedral 3D structure of human plasma very low density lipoproteins by individual particle cryo-electron tomography1[S]

Human VLDLs assembled in the liver and secreted into the circulation supply energy to peripheral tissues. VLDL lipolysis yields atherogenic LDLs and VLDL remnants that strongly correlate with CVD. Although the composition of VLDL particles has been well-characterized, their 3D structure is elusive b...
