Apolipoprotein[a] secretion from hepatoma cells is regulated in a size-dependent manner by alterations in disulfide bond formation

Apolipoprotein[a] (apo[a]) is a large disulfide linked glycoprotein synthesized by hepatocytes. We have examined the role of disulfide bond formation in the processing of apo[a] using human and rat hepatoma cells expressing apo[a] isoforms containing varying numbers of kringle 4 (K4) domains, follow...
