Abstract:Hydrodynamic studies conducted in the analytical ultracentrifuge provided evidence for two populations of lipid transfer particle (LTP) when centrifuged in a buffer solution containing 10 mM Tris, pH S.O/lOO mM KCl. The apparent sedimentation coefficients of the two species was 23.3 S and 15.3 S. Upon changing the buffer pH to 7.0 or 5.7, two species of LTP were still present but the ratio of their relative abundance was altered. When the KC1 concentration in the buffer was lowered to 50 mM the sample sediment… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
