MeSH Heading: Apolipoprotein B-100
Tree Number(s): D10.532.091.300.249; D12.776.070.400.300.249; D12.776.521.120.300.249
Unique ID: D053299
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D053299
Scope Note: 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.
