ApoA-I is associated with which lipoprotein(s)? What is its function?
|
HDL
|
-picks up cholesterol and loads into HDL
-activates LCAT -interacts with ABC transporter |
|
ApoA-II is associated with which lipoprotein(s)?
|
HDL
|
|
|
ApoA-IV is associated with which lipoprotein(s)?
|
-chylomicrons
-HDL |
|
|
ApoB-48 is associated with which lipoprotein(s)?
|
chylomicrons
|
|
|
ApoB-100 is associated with which lipoprotein(s)? What is its function?
|
-VLDL
-LDL |
-recognized by LDL receptors on cell surface
|
|
ApoC-I is associated with which lipoprotein(s)?
|
-VLDL
-LDL |
|
|
ApoC-II is associate with which lipoprotein(s)? What is its function?
|
-HDL
-VLDL -chylomicrons |
-activates lipoprotein lipase
-exchanged from chylomicrons to HDL in circulation, then cycled back to chylomicrons later |
|
ApoC-III is associated with which lipoprotein(s)? What is its function?
|
-chylmicrons
-VLDL -HDL |
-inhibits lipoprotein lipase
-exchanged from chylomicrons to HDL in circulation, then cycled back to chylomicrons later |
|
ApoD is associated with which lipoprotein(s)?
|
-HDL
|
|
|
ApoE is associated with which lipoprotein(s)?
|
-chylomicrons
-VLDL -HDL |
-triggers clearance of VLDL and chylomicrons when there's no more TG
-exchanged from chylomicrons to HDL in circulation, then cycled back to chylomicrons later |
|
What is the committed step in formation of cholesterol?
|
HMG-CoA reductase
|
|
|
How is cholesterol synthesis regulated?
|
-phosphorylation of HMG-CoA reductase enhanced by glucagon (deactivate)
-dephosphorylation of reductase enhanced by insulin (reactivate) -statin and cholesterol derivatives bind to substrate binding site of reductase cholesterol binds to LXR which activates 7a-hydrolase to synthesize bile salts from excess cholesterol -cholesterol binds SREBP and binds to LDL receptors and/or inhibits biosynthesis of reductase -cholesterol turns on ACAT to induce cholesterol storage |
