Associations of APOL1 with chemical compounds

  • Plasma apolipoprotein L concentrations correlate with plasma triglycerides and cholesterol levels in normolipidemic, hyperlipidemic, and diabetic subjects [1].
  • ApoLp-III-W@130 displayed a lambda(max) of 338 nm while interaction with DMPC resulted in a blue shift to 331 nm [15].
  • ApoLp-I was delipidated with ethanol/ether and solubilized in buffer that contained radioactive lysophosphatidylcholine ([3H]LPC) above the critical micellar concentration [16].
  • ApoLP-C-III-B showed conformational changes in the circular dichroic spectrum and a shift in the intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence spectrum [17].
  • ApoLp A-I has been recombined in almost quantitative yield in the presence of lysolecithin with phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin to particles of reproducible stoichiometry [18].
