Conformation of apolipoprotein B after lipid extraction of low density lipoproteins attached to an electron microscope grid.

We have examined the shape of apolipoprotein B (apoB) from low density lipoproteins (LDL) using a new method to prepare the electron microscope grids. After adsorption of the lipoproteins to a carbon-coated copper grid, lipids were extracted with ethanol-ether 4:1; an aqueous negative stain was then...
