Identification of a distinct human high‐density lipoprotein subspecies defined by a lipoprotein‐associated protein, K‐45

Abstract excerpt

In an attempt to provide immunological tools for subfractionation of high-density lipoproteins (HDL), monoclonal antibodies were raised against HDL complexes. Two clones identified a peptide, provisionally named K-45 (pI 4.5-4.9; molecular mass 45 kDa, range 42-48 kDa), whose plasma distribution and lipoprotein association were fully characterised. Gel filtration localised the peptide to the HDL region of human...
