The distribution of apolipoprotein A-I, apolipoprotein D, lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase, and cholesteryl ester transfer protein in fasting normal human plasma was determined by two-dimensional electrophoresis followed by immunoblotting. The synthesis and transfer of labeled cholesteryl esters generated in plasma briefly incubated with [3H]cholesterol-labeled fibroblasts was followed in terms of the lipoprotein species containing these antigens. Following the early appearance of labeled free cholesterol in two pre beta-migrating apolipoprotein A-I species (Castro, G. R., and Fielding, C. J. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 25-29), labeled esters were first detected, after a 2-min delay, in a third pre beta-migrating species which also contained apolipoprotein D, lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase, and cholesteryl ester transfer protein. Pulse-chase experiments determined that label generated in this fraction was the precursor of at least a major part of labeled cholesteryl esters in the bulk of alpha-migrating high density lipoprotein. Over the maximum time course of these experiments (15 min, 37 degrees C), less than 10% of labeled cholesteryl esters were recovered in low or very low density lipoproteins separated by electrophoresis, immunoaffinity, or heparin-agarose chromatography. These data suggest channeling of cell-derived cholesterol and cholesteryl esters derived from it through a preferred pathway involving several minor pre beta-migrating lipoproteins to alpha-migrating high density lipoprotein.
