Amino terminus of apolipoprotein B suffices to produce recognition of malondialdehyde-modified low density lipoprotein by the scavenger receptor of human monocyte-macrophages
Malondialdehyde, a product of lipid peroxidation, produces threshold conversion of low density lipoprotein (LDL) to a form recognized by type I and type II scavenger receptors of monocyte-macrophages. To investigate whether localized domains of human apoB-100 protein provide recognition determinants...
