Helix 1 tryptophan variants in Galleria mellonella apolipophorin III.

Chemistry and physics of lipids - 1 Dec 2015

Thistle Jake, Martinon Daisy, Weers Paul M M

Abstract excerpt

Apolipophorin III (apoLp-III) from Galleria mellonella is a critical apolipoprotein aiding in lipid transport and has gained considerable interest for a role in innate immunity. Both functions are likely related and form the rationale to gain a more detailed understanding of the lipid binding properties of this insect apolipoprotein. Tryptophan residues were introduced at positions 16, 20 or 24, all in helix 1 as...
