Effect of mutations of N- and C-terminal charged residues on the activity of LCAT

On the basis of structural homology calculations, we previously showed that lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), like lipases, belongs to the α/β hydrolase fold family. As there is higher sequence conservation in the N-terminal region of LCAT, we investigated the contribution of the N- and C...
