Term: apoliprotein
Literally meaning: ?protein with alterrate lipids?
Origin: Anc Greek
???/apo(= prefix meaning "from, away from, alterate, separate, remainder)
????/ -lipo- > ?????/lipos(=fat, grease) >????? > verb ?????/livo(=grease)
+????????/proteini(=protein) > ??????/protos(=first or of prime importance)
Coined/History
The term was coined by by American biochemist John Oncley (1910 ? July 14, 2004) in the 1940s for the protein constituents of the plasma lipoproteins.
Definition
Apoliprotein is any protein which binds to lipids such as LDL in order to form a soluble molecule named lipoprotein such as HDL.
