Triacylglycerol (TG)-depleted chylomicrons transfer A and C apoproteins to spherical (mature) HDL, generating chylomicron remnants (Havel and Kane 2001). This transfer is arbitrarily annotated here as involving one molecule of each apolipoprotein. The molecular difference that enables nascent chylomicrons to accept apolipoproteins from sperical HDL and TG-depleted chylomicrons to donate them is unclear.
