Abstract excerpt
ApoA-I and apoC-II are eluted in two isoforms and apoC-III2 is eluted in three isoforms by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The structural basis of these nongenetic heterogeneities was unravelled using HPLC of proteolytic peptides and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS). In apoA-I, the chromatographic microheterogeneity was caused by the formation of methionine...
