Preparation and incorporation of probe-labeled apoA-I for fluorescence resonance energy transfer studies of rHDL
Apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), the major constituent of HDL, plays an essential role in regulating cholesterol metabolism, acting as the physiological activator of lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase, which converts cholesterol to cholesterol ester. Thiol-reactive fluorescent probes attached to cyst...
