Apolipoprotein B-100 of plasma low density lipoproteins undergoes proteolysis by contact activation factors when plasma is treated with dextran sulfate-500-MgCl2.

Human plasma low density lipoproteins (LDL) isolated by ultracentrifugation showed a single band corresponding to apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) by SDS-gradient gel electrophoresis (GGE). In turn, apoB-100 of LDL precipitated from plasma by dextran sulfate-500 (DS)-MgCl2 exhibited several bands ind...
