Direct detection of ABCA1-dependent HDL formation based on lipidation-induced hydrophobicity change in apoA-I[S]

ABCA1 mediates the efflux of cholesterol and phospholipids into apoA-I to form HDL, which is important in the prevention of atherosclerosis. To develop a novel method for the evaluation of HDL formation, we prepared an apoA-I-POLARIC by labeling the specific residue of an apoA-I variant with a hydro...
