Lead Institution
Wayne State University
Principal Investigator
Jianjun Wang
Project type
Capability Research
This research proposal is focused on determining the NMR structure of an exchangeable apolipoprotein, apolipophorin-III, that is associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL). This is an important,…

NMR structural studies of apoAI/preb-HDL particles

Lead Institution
Wayne State University
Principal Investigator
Jianjun Wang
Project type
Capability Research
Apolipoprotein A-I (apoAI) is a 243-residue exchangeable apolipoprotein that plays a key role in clearing the ?bad cholesterol? from the human blood stream. ApoAI is the most abundant protein…

Structural Studies of Lipid-free Apolipoprotein A-I

Lead Institution
Wayne State University
Principal Investigator
Jianjun Wang
Project type
Capability Research
Cholesterol is a lipid that is necessary for our body. Only the cholesterol that is in excess in the peripheral cells and blood vessels are the bad cholesterol and need to be transport by the HDL…
