Lipoproteins
A lipoprotein is a biochemical assembly whose basic role is to transport hydrophobic lipid (a.k.a. fat) particles in water as in blood or extracellular fluid. They have a single layer phospholipid and cholesterol external shell, with the hydrophilic portion opened outward toward the surrounding water and lipophilic portion of every atom arranged inwards toward the lipids atoms inside the particles. Apolipoproteins are embedded in the membrane, both stabilising the complex and giving it functional identity determining its fate. Thus the complex serves to emulsify the fats. Numerous enzymes, transporters, structural proteins, antigens, adhesions, and poisons are lipoproteins. Example includes the plasma lipoprotein particles classified as HDL, LDL, IDL, VLDL and ULDL (a.k.a. chylomicrons) lipoproteins, according to density/size (an opposite relationship), compared with the surrounding plasma water. These complex protein capsules enable fats to be carried in all extracellular water, including the circulation system (a case of emulsification), subgroups of which are essential drivers/modulators of atherosclerosis, the transmembrane proteins of mitochondrion, chloroplast, and bacterial lipoproteins. Proteolipids are an alternate sort of protein-lipid combination that are insoluble in water. Proteolipids are abundant in cerebrum tissue, and are additionally present in numerous other creature and plant tissues.
Biochemistry and Modern Applications is a peer reviewed Journal, with rapid publication process. The topics like DNA polymerases, Heterochromatin, Ribosome, Non-coding DNA, Cell biology, Metabolism, Nutritional Biochemistry, Medicinal Biochemistry and Hormonal Biochemistry are studied. This is not just limited to above areas. The knowledge related to different biomolecules and their mechanisms can be studied in the journal of Biochemistry and modern applications. This journal provides an open access platform for the young scientists and researchers to share their valuable information regarding the biomolecules and their mechanism.
