Accession: GO:0042627
Name: chylomicron
Ontology: cellular_component
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A large lipoprotein particle (diameter 75-1200 nm) composed of a central core of triglycerides and cholesterol surrounded by a protein-phospholipid coating. The proteins include one molecule of apolipoprotein B-48 and may include a variety of apolipoproteins, including APOAs, APOCs and APOE. Chylomicrons are found in blood or lymph and carry lipids from the intestines into other body tissues. Source: GOC:jl, PMID:10580165, GOC:rl
