Description
Human low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is large protein complex (approx. 500,000 Da) that binds to a specific receptor on surface of vertebrate cells and delivers cholesterol via receptor-mediated endocytosis. Experiments to study LDL are typically performed by adding fluorescently labeled LDL to cultured cells and analyzing them by microscopy or flow cytometry. Alternatively fluorescently labeled LDL can be injected into test animals, and distribution of the label can be analyzed after the specified time period.
