Interfacial properties of amphipathic β strand consensus peptides of apolipoprotein B at oil/water interfaces

The region between residues 968 and 1882 of apolipoprotein B (apoB-21 to apoB-41) is rich in amphipathic β strands (AβSs) and promotes the assembly of primordial triacylglyceride (TAG)-rich lipoproteins. To understand the importance of AβS in recruiting TAG, the interfacial properties of two AβS con...
