| LDL receptors on the surfaces of cells bind the apoliprotein of LDL. Allowing the cells to take up cholesterol through receptor-mediated endocytosis. LDL enters the cell in a coated vesicle and fuses with an endosome. The difference in pH causes the LDL to detach from the LDL receptors. Apolipoprotein is degreaded into AA's and cholesteryl esters are converted to cholesterol and all these compenents are then use by the cell. |
