Abstract excerpt
Quenching of tryptophan fluorescence by nitroxide-labeled phospholipids and nitroxide-labeled fatty acids was used to investigate the lipid-binding domains of apolipophorin III. The location of the Trp residues relative to the lipid bilayer was investigated in discoidal lipoprotein particles made with 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and five different single-Trp mutants of apoLp-III. A comparison...
