Rat lymph chylomicrons were treated with Pronase resulting in particles completely devoid of surface apoproteins. On re-incubation with serum, the Pronase-treated chylomicrons re-acquired, by transfer from other lipoproteins, all apoproteins except apoprotein B, which is water-insoluble and non-transferable. When two groups of rats were injected with [3H]cholesterol-labelled control or Pronase-treated chylomicrons, radioactivity was incorporated into the liver of both groups at similar rates. It is concluded that the remnants of the control and Pronase-treated chylomicrons formed in the vascular space were recognized and taken up by liver cells by a process that does not require apoprotein B.
