Abstract excerpt
The enzymatic and interfacial binding activity of lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) is affected differentially by the location and extent of its glycosylation. Two LCAT glycosylation-deficient mutants, N84Q and N384Q, were constructed, permanently expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells, and purified to determine the effects of deleting individual glycan chains on its stability, structure, and...
