Abstract excerpt
It was previously shown that human platelet 12S-lipoxygenase (h12-LOX) exists as a dimer; however, the specific structure is unknown. In this study, we create a model of the dimer through a combination of computational methods, experimental mutagenesis, and hydrogen-deuterium exchange (HDX) investigations. Initially, Leu183 and Leu187 were replaced by negatively charged glutamate residues and neighboring aromatic...
