Isolation of subfractions of human very low density lipoproteins by zonal ultracentrifugation.

Very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) have been isolated and subfractionated on the basis of their differing flotation rates. The procedure consists of a single 45-min zonal ultracentrifugation step using a linear density gradient of d = 1.00 to 1.15 g/ml. Appropriate fractions of the zonal rotor effluent containing the entire VLDL spectrum were characterized by analytical ultracentrifugation, gel filtration chromatography, and complete chemical analysis. Flotation rates of VLDL subspecies from hypertriglyceridemic and normolipemic plasmas correlated directly with their Stokes radii and triglyceride content and inversely with their proportion of cholesterol, cholesteryl esters, phospholipids, and total protein. There was also an inverse correlation of flotation rate with the fraction of tetramethylurea-insoluble protein. This procedure provides a reliable methodology for a rapid isolation of VLDL subfractions and the accurate determination of their flotation rates.

Plasma lipoprotein separations by zonal ultracentrifugation.

Procedures for the separation of plasma lipoprotein classes and subclasses by zonal ultracentrifugation are described. The main density classes, very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), low density lipoproteins (LDL) and high density lipoproteins (HDL), in plasma can be separated in a single run for 20 hours. For the isolation of VLDL-LDL a centrifugation time of only 90 minutes is needed. Separations can be performed on plasma volumes varying from 10 to 400 ml in the Ti-14 rotor used; VLDL can in this way be isolated from 400 ml plasma in 30 minutes. The advantages and disadvantages of zonal ultracentrifugation in comparison with the commonly employed differential ultracentrifugation for separation of lipoproteins are discussed.

Separation of subclasses of human serum high density lipoproteins by zonal ultracentrifugation.

An improved one-step method for the preparative separation of three subfractions of high-density lipoproteins from normal human serum has been developed. It employs the method of rate zonal ultracentrifugation in a z-60 rotor using a discontinuous NaBr gradient in the density range of 1.0-1.4. The density gradients were monitored directly by a flow-through density meter allowing the direct read-out of the actual densities in the process of filling and emptying the rotor. The separation of the three density fractions from 5 to 15 ml serum was achieved during a single 12 hours run at 59.000 rpm. The three fractions showed characteristically different patterns on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and differences in their lipid and protein composition.
