Conversion of lipid transfer inhibitor protein (apolipoprotein F) to its active form depends on LDL composition
Lipid transfer inhibitor protein (LTIP) exists in both active and inactive forms. Incubation (37°C) of plasma causes LTIP to transfer from a 470 kDa inactive complex to LDL where it is active. Here, we investigate the mechanisms underlying this movement. Inhibiting LCAT or cholesteryl ester transfer...
