Cryo-electron microscopy reveals human low density lipoprotein substructure.

In the present study, we have examined the structure of human low density lipoprotein (LDL) using cryo-electron microscopy. Human LDL particles were analyzed in a vitrified frozen-hydrated condition, without chemical fixation or any form of staining. Hence, the lipoproteins were visualized close to...
