Structure of apolipoprotein B-100 in low density lipoproteins [PDF]
There is general consensus that amphipathic α-helices and β sheets represent the major lipid-associating motifs of apolipoprotein (apo)B-100. In this review, we examine the existing experimental and computational evidence for the pentapartite domain ...

High prevalence of familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 in Switzerland. [PDF]
Familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 (FDB) is caused by a single G-to-A substitution at nucleotide 10,708 leading to an arginine to glutamine change at amino acid 3,500 of the apolipoprotein B-100 and thus, a reduced binding of the apolipoprotein B to

VLDL and IDL apolipoprotein B-100 kinetics in familial hypercholesterolemia due to impaired LDL receptor function or to defective apolipoprotein B-100 [PDF]
Mutations in the apolipoprotein (apo) B, E (LDL) receptor gene and in the apolipoprotein B-100 gene are the cause of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and of familial defective apo B-100 (FDB), respectively.

Asymmetric distribution of pause transfer sequences in apolipoprotein B-100
Lipoprotein assembly requires a complex and regulated set of events that includes apolipoprotein B (apoB) translocation across the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane, folding, and association with lipids.

Effect of apolipoprotein E genotype on apolipoprotein B-100 metabolism in normolipidemic and hyperlipidemic subjects [PDF]
The effect of apolipoprotein (apo) E genotype on apoB-100 metabolism was examined in three normolipidemic apoE2/E2, five type III hyperlipidemic apoE2/E2, and five hyperlipidemic apoE3/E2 subjects using simultaneous administration of 131I-VLDL and 125I ...

Mutation of lysine residues in apolipoprotein B-100 causes defective lipoprotein[a] formation [PDF]
Lipoprotein[a] (Lp[a]) is assembled by a two-step process involving an initial lysine-dependent binding between apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) and apolipoprotein[a] (apo[a]) that facilitates the formation of a disulphide bond between apoB-100Cys4,326 ...

Rapid Diagnosis of Familial Defective Apolipoprotein B-100 [PDF]
A method is described for the rapid, economic and non-radioactive examination of DNA samples from hypercholesterolaemic patients for familial defective apolipoprotein B-100, using a modified polymerase chain reaction (PCR) protocol and restriction enzyme isoform genotyping.

White matter differences between healthy young ApoE4 carriers and non-carriers identified with tractography and support vector machines. [PDF]
The apolipoprotein E4 (ApoE4) is an established risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Previous work has shown that this allele is associated with functional (fMRI) changes as well structural grey matter (GM) changes in healthy young, middle-aged and ...
