ApoAI is the major protein component of the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) that has been a hot subject of interests because of its anti-atherogenic properties. Lipid-free apoAI specifically binds to phospholipids, triggering HDL formation. Here we report a complete backbone assignment and nearly complete sidechain assignment of a C-terminal 24-residue truncation mutant of mouse apoAI, apoAI(1-216), in its lipid-free form.
载脂蛋白AI(ApoAI)是高密度脂蛋白(HDL)的主要蛋白质成分,因其抗动脉粥样硬化特性而一直是研究热点。无脂质的ApoAI能特异性结合磷脂,引发HDL的形成。在此,我们报告了小鼠ApoAI的C端24个残基截短突变体apoAI(1 - 216)无脂质形式的完整主链归属和几乎完整的侧链归属。
