ATP hydrolysis-dependent conformational changes in the extracellular domain of ABCA1 are associated with apoA-I binding[S]

ATP-binding cassette protein A1 (ABCA1) plays a major role in cholesterol homeostasis and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism. Although it is predicted that apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) directly binds to ABCA1, the physiological importance of this interaction is still controversial and the conf...
