Identification of a neutral lipid core in a transiently expressed and secreted lipoprotein containing an apoB-48-like apolipoprotein.

The presence of core lipids in lipoproteins expressed and secreted by transfected HepG2 cells was demonstrated by measuring the densities of these lipoproteins before and after treatment with a bacterial lipase specific for neutral lipids. HepG2 cells were reproducibly transfected with pRSV/B48, con...
