Abstract excerpt
Familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 (FDB) is caused by a mutation in the receptor-binding region of apolipoprotein B-100, the structural protein of the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particle. We studied the effect of this mutation on the composition and susceptibility to oxidative modificatio...
