Chylomicrons Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

What is a lipoprotein Many important molecules in the body are lipids. But transporting these molecules around the body through the blood presents an obvious problem, because, by definition, lipids are nonpolar and thus not very soluble in water. Small amounts of fatty acids are transported in the blood bound to blood proteins. These are called free fatty acids (despite the binding). Beyond this, however, other lipids are transported in special particles called lipoproteins. To emphasis, lip...
