Structural and functional characterization of human apolipoprotein E 72-166 peptides in both aqueous and lipid environments

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Backgrounds</p> <p>There are three apolipoprotein E (apoE) isoforms involved in human lipid homeostasis. In the present study, truncated apoE2-, apoE3- and apoE4-(72-166) peptides that are tailored to lack domain interactions are expressed and elucida...
