Interacting selectively and non-covalently with high-density lipoprotein: one of the classes of lipoproteins found in blood plasma in many animals (data normally relate to humans). Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules). Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a chylomicron, a class of lipoprotein found in blood plasma in many animals. Chylomicrons are the largest lipoproteins, with diameters of 75-600 nanometers and have the lowest protein-to-lipid ratio and therefore the lowest density. The selective, non-covalent, often stoichiometric, interaction of a molecule with one or more specific sites on another molecule. Combining with a lipoprotein to initiate a change in cell activity. A lipoprotein is any conjugated, water-soluble protein in which the nonprotein moiety consists of a lipid or lipids; the lipid may be triglyceride, cholesterol, or phospholipid, or a combination of these. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with low-density lipoprotein, one of the classes of lipoproteins found in blood plasma in many animals (data normally relate to humans). Interacting selectively and non-covalently with very-low-density lipoprotein, one of the classes of lipoproteins found in blood plasma in many animals. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any conjugated, water-soluble protein in which the nonprotein moiety consists of a lipid or lipids.
