Phospholipid distribution in lipoproteins as determined by mass spectrometry. (A) LDL and (B) HDL phospholipid composition based on headgroup. (C) LDL and (D) HDL fatty acid distribution for main phospholipid species. Total lipid composition including triglycerides, cholesterol esters and free cholesterol for the two particle preparations is shown in Supplementary Information Table S1. Polyunsaturated refers to fatty acids with 2 or more double bonds.
