Changes in helical content or net charge of apolipoprotein C-I alter its affinity for lipid/water interfaces[S]
Amphipathic α-helices mediate binding of exchangeable apolipoproteins to lipoproteins. To probe the role of α-helical structure in protein-lipid interactions, we used oil-drop tensiometry to characterize the interfacial behavior of apolipoprotein C-I (apoC-I) variants at triolein/water (TO/W) and 1-...
