1 Owing to the intricate contact between the lipidic core and the apolipoproteins, the Trp residues of human serum LDL and HDL3 are very rapidly oxidized, i.e., at least one order of magnitude faster than Tyr HDL and Lys LDL, which are believed to be involved in the binding of these lipoproteins to their cell receptors.
