ApoB: The intracellular protein detection dilemma in lipoprotein biology
•
Investigating the intracellular biology of very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) remains a challenge.
•
We therefore generated apoB100-FLAG mice, which display normal lipid levels and concentration of FLAG-tagged apoB100 in plasma. However, we were unable to detect either apoB or FLAG in primary hepatocytes using immunofluorescence.
•
Blocking proteasomal degradation alone or combined with inhibition of the secretory pathway only marginally improved apoB detection.
•
Our study suggests that the physiological concentration of apoB100 in isolated hepatocytes is too low and heterogeneous to allow for studies into the subcellular localisation of apoB.
期刊介绍:
BBA Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids publishes papers on original research dealing with novel aspects of molecular genetics related to the lipidome, the biosynthesis of lipids, the role of lipids in cells and whole organisms, the regulation of lipid metabolism and function, and lipidomics in all organisms. Manuscripts should significantly advance the understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying biological processes in which lipids are involved. Papers detailing novel methodology must report significant biochemical, molecular, or functional insight in the area of lipids.
