α-Helix content and parameters of thermal denaturation and ANS binding of human apoA-I C-terminal variants
| apoA-I variant | α-Helixa (%) | Tmb (°C) | ΔHvc (kcal/mol) | ANS fluorescenced |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WT | 52 ± 1 | 59 | 33 | 1.0 |
| F225L/F229A/Y236A | 52 ± 2 | 57 | 44 | 0.5 |
| F225L/F229L/A232L/Y236L | 55 ± 4 | 56 | 23 | 1.1 |
Mean ± SD from at least three experiments.
The reproducibility in midpoint temperature Tm is ± 1.5°C.
Van’t Hoff enthalpy. Estimated error is ± 0.5kcal/mol.
Values are relative to WT. Estimated error is within ± 0.1.
