1 Functional analysis of disulfide linkages clustered within the amino terminus of human apolipoprotein B. Disulfides apolipoprotein B Homo sapiens
2 We tested the involvement of N-terminal six disulfide bonds (Cys-1 through Cys-12) of human apolipoprotein (apo) B in the assembly and secretion of lipoproteins using two C-terminal-truncated apoB variants, namely B50 and B18. Disulfides apolipoprotein B Homo sapiens
3 Expression of these mutants showed that disruption of disulfide bond formation within Cys-5 to Cys-8 diminished apoB secretion, whereas within Cys-1 to Cys-4 or Cys-9 to Cys-12 had lesser or no effect. Disulfides apolipoprotein B Homo sapiens
