To identify residues and segments in the central region of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) that are important for the protein structure and stability, we studied the effects of four double charge ...

Most individuals (>80%) express 2 different apolipoprotein (a) isoforms, 9 1 inherited from each parent, which contribute to lipoprotein (a) levels in a codominant manner. 9, 15 The kringle ...

An ability to acquire iron is essential for the viability and growth of almost all organisms and in pathogenic bacteria is strongly correlated with virulence. The cell surface lipoprotein MtsA, a ...

Two studies published in Nature report the structure of apolipoprotein B100 on LDL using high-resolution, artificial intelligence-assisted cryo-electron microscopy and uncover its precise ...

Background and Purpose—Lipid and lipoprotein abnormalities have been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemic cerebrovascular disease and atherosclerosis. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) plays an important ...

Medically reviewed by Amy Kwan, PT Body type, or somatotype, describes a person's general body composition, proportion, and ...

Lp (a) is a lipoprotein that travels through the blood. Elevated levels of Lp (a) collect in the arteries, gradually narrowing them and limiting blood supply to the heart, brain, kidneys and legs.

Here we use cryogenic electron microscopy to determine the structure of TbAQP2 from Trypanosoma brucei, bound to either the substrate glycerol or to the sleeping sickness drugs, pentamidine or ...

But a high level of LDL cholesterol increases your risk for heart disease and stroke since LDL cholesterol’s structure allows it to stick to the walls of arteries where the deposits are known as ...
